Cosmopolitan piscivorous raptor

What does piscivorous mean? Adapted to feeding on fish; fish-eating.

Many other diurnal birds of prey also eat fish, but the real piscivorous is the Osprey. Moreover, even cosmopolitan. So it's a pretty special bird species.

Do I have to say anything else? Watch Osprey cams! 😉

Currently 6 Osprey cams available on the WACMAP.
