Osprey, fish, crow

 

An osprey cannot eat a fish when it is flying; the bird must first land. Even if it is taking the fish back to its chicks in a nest, the osprey will often stop off for a snack first. That seems to be what this morning’s osprey was doing when it brought a fish to an ancient piling.

When the osprey departed with the remaining half of its fish, there was sufficient offal left on the piling that a crow immediately took the opportunity to clean it up.

First, the osprey with fish, and then the crow cleaning up.
