Brooding I do hope they are successful again......
The southern screamer (Chauna torquata) is a species of bird in family Anhimidae of the waterfowl order Anseriformes. It is found in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay.
A successful dive only takes a few seconds but a big trout tends to swim to the bottom to escape and can drag the osprey with him. When this happens he will lay in the water for a few seconds before he gets airborne again.
Successfully used in combat in the Battle of France, accounting for about a third of the AdLA victories.
Typically French, the throttles had to be modified to operate in the opposite direction to aircraft for the US and UK.....
Have a wonderful, bright, successful, blissful and healthy New Year and beyond!

Falling behind posting images so here goes.
We have a pair of Loons nesting again successfully this year on our lakes. Spent an enjoyable morning just sitting and watching the parents feed the two chicks small minnows and various water invertebrates small enough for these little guys to handle. Look forward to watching this family grow over summer.

It's good to be home.

The Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea) is an example of a piscivore. This large bird hunts for its prey in both freshwater and saltwater. It waits patiently, standing on one leg in the shallow water, waiting for a fish to come into range. When it does, the Grey Heron quickly strikes, stabbing the fish with its strong, pointy beak!
These powerful beaks also come in handy when other animals are near; Grey Herons will eat small birds, amphibians, and small mammals that live near water. Scientists think Grey Herons are most successful at hunting at night, using moonlight to help them find food.
Grey Herons are unmistakeable: tall, with long legs, a long beak and grey, black and white feathering. They can stand with their neck stretched out, looking for food, or hunched down with their neck bent over their chest.
This beautiful Grey Heron was captured during a photography safari on an early morning game drive at the Hyena Dam in Nairobi National Park, Kenya.
A bird, I believe it's a loon, surfaces with a small fish. It's not a great photo because of the distance and the water moisture above the lake surface. Oh, and there's only two other birds nearby and of course one of them would have their head in the way. But I decided to post it because it'll probably be a long time before I capture something like that again. (Southern Oregon Cascades Trip DSC_7473.jpg)

My first successful shot of a bug in the wild (never mind the poor little jumping spider I trapped under a glass :)) He was so focused on the bounty of the sunflower he paid no mind to me. The breeze was bouncing the bloom around and I'm still a total rookie when it comes to metering but not too bad.
Aa a new day dawns, an Osprey returns from a successful hunting trip out over the Gulf of Mexico at Ft. Pickens, Florida.

On November 24, 1973 a US Navy airplane was forced to make an emergency landing and crashed on Sólheimasandur beach near Vik Iceland. Thankfully the landing was a success and everyone survived, but the plane was never salvaged and what's left of it remains at the crash site to this day.
It's a bit of a walk to get here in the winter (4.5 miles roundtrip), but I beat the storm clouds and enjoyed the exercise.
Successful Patience...
The mice in my garden are looking if spring has already started.

Watching this beautiful coyote was a highlight of a recent trip. It was a windy day and definitely hard to focus on this coyote through the tall, golden, blowing grass, but I caught a glimpse of a successful hunt.

This successful cheetah mother, Neema, (Acinonyx jubatus) has successfully raised three of her original litter of four cubs.
Having three young cubs to feed she has to hunt daily as the cubs are yet to begin hunting and still very young, 18 months, to be left on their own.
This is one of her cubs, following Mamma who was on the prowl and was captured during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, Kenya.

The serval (Leptailurus serval) is a wild cat native to Africa.
The serval is a slender, medium-sized cat that stands 54-62 cm (21-24 in) at the shoulder and weighs 9-18 kg (20-40 lb). It is characterised by a small head, large ears, a golden-yellow to buff coat spotted and striped with black, and a short, black-tipped tail. The serval has the longest legs of any cat relative to its body size.
The serval is a solitary carnivore and active both by day and at night. It preys on rodents, particularly vlei rats, small birds, frogs, insects, and reptiles, using its sense of hearing to locate prey. It leaps over 2 m (6 ft 7 in) above the ground to land on the prey on its forefeet, and finally kills it with a bite on the neck or the head. Both sexes establish highly overlapping home ranges of 10 to 32 km2 (4 to 12 sq mi), and mark them with feces and saliva.
Having hidden her three very cute kittens, Mamma Serval went hunting and within 30 minutes she managed to catch a vlei rat which it quickly took back to it's very eager and hungry kittens. Captured during a photography safari on a late evening game drive in Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya.
