Imgaes from Lab Bio Road & L Pond Road on Florida's Merritt Island. Lab Bio Road presents plenty of opportunities for pictures of Osprey on natural perches (rather than electrical poles). The road also features Herons, Egret and Aligators in abundance. If I ever get the chance to visit again, I will spend a whole day on this road alone as it runs parallel to the sea for much of its length there are good opportunities to capture Osprey fishing.

The car acts as an excellent hide and you can approach very close as long as you don't get out of the car so all these pictures are taken from adjacent to the road.

All the images in this gallery are 400mm full frame field of view and uncropped.
