This Osprey was seen at Lake Elmo 7/13/2008. It was so freakin' amazing to watch it soar and hover over the lake looking for fish. We saw it do a few dives, but always aborted (I assume the fish was no longer near the surface) before hitting the water. It hovered almost directly over my head for a couple minutes and you could see it turning its head from side to side scanning the lake. Really, really cool. It was also the first osprey we saw this summer, our first summer as bird watchers.
