There you go… nice (not that it matters) but I like it.
BTW… from the National Audubon Society
http://birds.audubon.org/species/osprey
“The Osprey is a magnificent fish-eating hawk with a white-crested head, yellow eyes, a white underside, and a dark brown back.”
I believe most people know it as an Osprey.
“Apathy is the Glove into Which Evil Slips It’s Hand”.
Do you believe most people know a “Red-Tailed” is a Hawk?
“A rose by any other name”…
Redtail hawks, chickenhawks, sparrowhawks…

I did, just for you. An Osprey is a single genus, single species bird, much like a cobia, it has no relatives.
quote:
Some authors use "hawk" generally for any small to medium Accipitrid that is not an eagle.[1]The common names of some birds include the term “hawk”, reflecting traditional usage rather than taxonomy, such as referring to an osprey as a “fish hawk” or a peregrine falcon as a “duck hawk”.

Taxonomy and systematicsThe osprey was one of the many species described by Carolus Linnaeus in his 18th-century work, Systema Naturae, and named as Falco haliaeetus.[2] The genus, Pandion, is the sole member of the family of Pandionidae, and used to contain only one species, the osprey (P. haliaetus). The genus Pandion was described by the French zoologist Marie Jules C?sar Savigny in 1809, and is taken from a mythical Greek king, Pandion.[3][4][5]

I’m sorry, you are incorrect…
If you would like to quote sources from Wikipedia from the same time they thought the world was flat and blood letting was a cure for disease… go for it.
An Osprey is a Hawk… the same way a Red-tail, Red-shouldered, Sharp-Shinned, are etc…
23… good capture…

Can you give a reliable source that disputes this?

They disproved that about 1492. Birds were classified in the 1800’s.

John Audubon was born in 1785, way after your flat earth theorists.

It would make since that it would be classified as a hawk… More of a bird of prey I would guess… Not that it matters.

You win slowpoke, you are absolutely correct. I cannot imagine why I bothered. All I know is I have never heard anyone call an Osprey a hawk.

Great pic of an Osprey. They are better at fishing than all of us combined! My favorite experience of one was being at the tailrace with 40 other boats not catching Shad when one swoops down, grabs a 4 pounder then flies it two victory laps around all of us dumasses

Uh, I think you mean hawk.

Crabs haven’t been around for about 10 years now. You guys need to get out more.

Good for you Fritz, good for you.

I’m saying that others have approached me about buying the rights to some…but I barter for fishing trips/gear/good food.
