One day our family and some friends were kayaking on the Sacramento River. When we had stopped and were eating lunch we heard a bird scream. We looked across the river and we saw an osprey with a huge fish! There were some turkey vultures, sometimes called buzzards, trying to steal the fish from the osprey.
I jumped on the back of Shannon's kayak and we went across the river to get a closer look at the birds. As we were taking pictures, the vultures flew away. The osprey stayed there eating his fish as fast as he could.
We got so close we could almost touch him. Then he flew off but the fish was so heavy it weighed him down so much he could barely make it to his log! Lucky for him the vultures didn't follow.
Hi Trista, I enjoyed your commentary! Pretty good pictures, did you take them?
