Osprey – note the under-wing patterning, see Bald Eagle below
Ospreys, or “Fish Hawks”, are surprisingly common, and can be found just about anywhere. You’ll typically see them flying high over the water from a tree on one side to a tree on the other, occasionally diving down on some unlucky fish. Ospreys are usually seen alone, but mating pairs stay together, and I think young siblings stay together for a while as well. Ospreys are one of the biggest birds that you are likely to see. A single species has an almost worldwide distribution – pretty much everywhere except Australia.
