The Mustang did this for a few laps before it broke down outside turn six if I remember correctly. SVRA at Mid Ohio.

Here's a very fuzzy pic of the Osprey taken with my cheap point and shoot - you can see his white chest.....

Don't they concentrate on eating fish.

Really cool pic of the osprey in flight! Neat facts about ospreys: After they crash into the water to capture a fish, the take a half second to shake the water off on the way back up into the air. Also, see that he's carrying the fish head first...if they catch them tail first, they rotate it to be aerodynamic in flight. There's a lagoon across the fairway from the back of our house so I love to watch them in action! Cool pic!

Thanks for the Osprey info and pic.....I've always loved them and was just getting a little paranoid the other night.....

Some really nice pics being posted here....

Was just outside and it is about perfect weather right now.

Took a pic of one of my old Malibu path lights that I installed 20 years ago. They have that wedge halogen bulb. I've upgraded most of my lights to LED and 'non-plastic' bodies but left a couple of these dinosaurs as a testament to how well plastic holds up in a fairly hostile environment.

Why don't you start a thread for collectors ? I'll bet we have a few.

Mas,

Ospreys are my favorite bird. We have a number of nests in the area and the inter play between the Ospreys themselves and Bald Eagles is a wonder of flight.

This is the view from my home office, the closest Osprey nest:



I've seen 22 years of Ospreys on that nest.

Crappy cell phone pic from my driveway of the outRAGEOUSLY cool Vandenburg launch. Neighbors were out in the street yelling to each other "What is it?". I was the only one who knew it for what it was.

Cool arches. Here are some shadows of arches in Santiago de Compostela.
