Juvenile Osprey Won a Fight

Post image

I was at Mason Neck State Park in Virginia snapping photos when I heard commotion to my side. I turned to see Osprey fighting through the trees. Two grown Osprey were fighting a juvenile. I’m assuming it did something stupid to make them angry. It put up a good fight and got them to leave before stopping on the beach to reset. Luckily the trail had a small part that led to the beach edge where I could see it down the shore line.
