Description
An Osprey rises upward and forward with a freshly snatched fish from the wetland stream running at high tide at Occoquan Bay Wildlife Refuge. Water spray and wings are high as it carries its prize to a nearby tree. This is a vertical version of the event and an earlier landscape version in my portfolio.
