Just Caught a Fish! But I think he's losing it!

This osprey just dived in a pond at Alton Baker Park and caught this fish, and then lost it! The color of the water that reflected the the trees surrounding it and the bird's colors made for a very difficult exposure. It all happened so fast that I didn't have time to check settings, etc. Though the result is less than perfect, I feel privileged to have got a shot.
