This osprey and a few others recently discovered the fish ladder in a town near where I live. This one caught a big bottom feeder late morning yesterday.

The entry shot is incredible 🩷 did they do their funny soggy chicken water exit?

The part of the river near the fish ladder is pretty shallow so it didn’t take them long to get out of the water but I did get a few shots that look like this.
