This was another trip to Long Reef in order to photograph the Ospreys and whatever other birds may be present.
I did see a number of Ospreys but there was not that much action during my visit. No hunting for fish close to the rock platform.
When I arrived, I spotted an Osprey perched on the northern side of the Headland –
It was soon joined by second Osprey.
This one decided to do a poo –
The other one looked like it was about to take off.
But then it settled back down.
And a minute or so later it did take off –
The other one watched –
Another poo –
And it too took to the air.
They flew out of sight. I walked back to the rock platform.
Australasian Darter
Pied Cormorant
Crested Tern
Sooty Oystercatcher
White-faced Heron
Double-banded Plovers
Red-necked Stints
Pied Cormorant
Then an Osprey turned up on the same trees as earlier, but this one had a fish.
It was suddenly disturbed by a Raven, so it took off –
It landed on a rock near the island, and continued eating –
