Osprey Shake

Osprey Shake

This young osprey was giving a shake to shed some water after a dip in the river. This is one time I wish my shutter speed hadn't been fast. A bit of motion blur would have looked like more what I saw. It is a funny move to watch an osprey shake like a dog but while flying. One just doesn't see an adult osprey being so undignified!
