The first time I took a picture of an Osprey I was 10, and I shakily placed a 4$ 'toy' camera the size of a pine cone to the eye-piece of a spotting scope. The picture came out. I was officially the first person ever to 'digi-scope'. With significantly better gear I caught this bruiser as it dropped out of the sky not 15 feet in front of me, while I was trying to get a better look at an Oriental Cuckoo. It drank, and flopped around in the water for a bit. Looks angry. I also remember being forced by my 5th grade teacher to write letters to world leaders pleading for the banning of Osprey-egg-softening DDT. Or something along those lines. Birds.
