Osprey or Seahawk

It matters not what you call him/her: Osprey or Seahawk...
It is one beautiful bird:


Mom and Dad Osprey, 
keeping a look-out atop the highest branch of a dead tree.



This young flegling discovers, for the first time, 
what his wings are for.


... and here, Dad returns from a successful fishing trip. 
He carries his bounty like a torpedo, to reduce 
the drag while he is flying.
Clever bird, don't you think?
