A Difficult Maneuver

I was at Downsview Park to see Chimney Swifts when I noticed an Osprey hovering over the large pond. As soon as I arrived by the pond, it dove and caught one of the biggest goldfish that I have seen an Osprey catch. The bird tried to go around one of the four water fountains and ended up dropping the fish. He didn't give up, he did a few circles and dove again to catch an equally large goldfish. And yes, I did see and photograph the Chimney Swifts.
