It seems every year at this paper I'm shooting a variation of this same shot. Ospreys build their nests atop the light poles surrounding high school sports fields, and while shooting games in the late afternoons they swoop back and forth, either building still or bringing fish to their chicks. If I'm bored at the game I'll start following them with the long sports lens I already have on the camera. I wonder if anyone in the games notice the weird photographer on the sidelines pointing his camera at the sky...
