Photos of what appears to be an adult Osprey with three chicks - two older one with one younger one.
Apparently Ospreys can have several chicks hatching over a month period.

Has anyone seen similar Osprey families?

Hi Steve.
Very nice shot, thanks for making it clickable to view the original, the images posted here get so squidged as to almost spoil them.

Cheers, Graham.

You got that right Graham! What a difference, especially when it's a bird that doesn't have the sexiness that some have. This is a nice shot.

Thanks Graham, it's a little embarrassing to be a one-trick pony at the moment but then I think of the pleasure that Harry the heron brought me, of course those were flight and eating fish shots so more impressive. Never the less, I simply must post something once in a while.

Hi Jack,
Harry says hello and he caught you a nice fish ;D

Stunning quality, there Serendipity.
Were those with the 7Dii or the 5D3?

Hi Mikehit. Thank you for your kind words. Those were taken with the 7Dii and the 100-400Lii.
