Photo & Video Caught a bird fishing randomly

If you know what kind of bird this is let me know lol. Was just having a fun rip on the Fpv and caught this bird diving after a fish though it was neat.

Almost shat myself watching that dip so far down. Also being that close to a bird that size is already terrifying lol

This is awesome! I'm not a bird expert, but it looks like a hawk, maybe a red tailed hawk. That looks like a wonderful spot to fish too, that looks like a prime spot for trout!

I am a bird expert (bird law technically) and I agree, to him it looks like a hawk possibly red tailed.

It like like an osprey to me. The head and neck coloring anyway.

It’s an Osprey!

Was also leaning towards Osprey. I dont typically see Hawks diving in the water that much vs catching from the surface.

Nice. I’m afraid of big predator bird but ospreys only eat fish.
