We were out and about in TV recently when a hawk flew by with a fish in its mouth. Mr. Boomer said, "Look at how that hawk is carrying the fish. That bird understands aerodynamics."

And now, here we have your photo clearly showing that the osprey understands aerodynamics too. (I just showed the picture to Mr. B.)

I never really thought about birds of prey using aerodynamics when they are flying dinner home. But now I have seen it twice in one week. Amazing.

Thank you for bringing the wonders of nature up close for us.
