These birds are masters of fishing, and its always a wonderful sight to see one of these who has really honed its skill.
The Wingspan of the Osprey or Fish eagle can reach up to 6ft wide.
Such a beauty to see when spread, this one here scanning the waters before making a dive to catch some fishy breakfast.
Some of these birds literally dive into the water, almost totally submerged to grab a fish.
Catching the fish is one part of the job, getting to a comfortable perch to enjoy a meal is another task on its own, especially when there are pirates around.
The Magnificent frigate bird, is a super pirate in the bird world.
They are known as bullies of the sea bird world, and will go above and beyond to steal a meal whenever they see an opportunity.
These two are on the chase for the Osprey's meal, and its not easy task to get away from these marauders, who will pull tail feathers and do just about anything a potential robber will do.
The frigate birds have caught up to the Osprey and created a sandwich like effect with him/her in the middle.
The female frigate posed a distraction, while the male frigate bird comes from the rear, and sneaks up and grabs the fish from the Osprey's talons.
In the second image(right),the male frigate on the upper right of the frame with the Osprey's catch between his beak, and the Osprey with talons wide open, with a look of frustration
After all the drama, and never giving up, eventually one must succeed
So much for the Frigate bird stealing the small catfish.
This time to make up for lost energy, lost food, this bird was fortunate to redeem himself and get a very nice reward with a huge mullet.

"I would like to take this opportunity to firstly state my love and support for all the vulnerable in our society, more specifically one whom we all know and love Uncle Ellis, who has in recent years have a presence in our beloved country howeverI choose to at this time, inform the public that I am no longer affiliated or involved with him professionally.
I am happy for Uncle Ellis; he has a new management team.
There were various rumours circulating that I only knew Uncle Ellis for 2 weeks and “they’ve” known him for over 3 years but, it should be noted that recognition was taken seriously off the launch of my video on December 3rd 2015, that night in front of KFC .
When I mentioned I would assist him this was something genuine because I looked at Uncle Ellis as a Father and me giving back to someone in need when I saw him dancing to my song it touched me deeply, then suddenly an Instagram page was in effect from unknown sources, it has been 6 weeks since the video was launch with Uncle Ellis dancing to my tune and 4 weeks an Instagram page went into effect, the facts are out here for the public to see and investigate for themselves.
This all took place when I was out the country and upon my return I kept my promise to help him both on stage and off stage.
Many are unaware he's sixty five(65) years old and a patient of St Ann's, which I was trying to assist him in getting back on his medication with assistance from nurses who cared for him at St Ann's.
I was also in the process of acquiring all his identification documents; this was taking place behind the scenes.
Anyone who knows my character knows whether in Trinidad or abroad knows when I give back to my community it is from my heart just like my events in New York doing the same to children as well.
This wasn't something to exploit anyone.
So apparently some people didn't like my intentions for him and his management team started with the rumours that Uncle Ellis acts were free and he was being paid by me $25 a show (absolutely erroneous claims).
I am very intrigued that everyone wants to help now and he's no longer on the streets and his management team is housing him somewhere safe and secure. Now that the tide has changed for Uncle Ellis, I have witnessed people kissing, 'hugging him and seen the joy that comes to his face and I am happy and thank God for allowing me to play a part on Sunday 3rd December, 2015.
So the past four (4) days I had to gather my thoughts on how to break the news to the country because I am deeply hurt with all that has taken place. I will continue to support Uncle Ellis fully, 100% and I wish him all the best.
In life is not where you come from but where you are going..."
