Mike737 Posted January 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2015 The nearest I ever got to that was a heron pinching the fish out of my pond... Is the last fish a salmon? I'm not a fish expert. Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kes Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I was in Shropshire about a year ago and saw what I believe was an Osprey flying over the moorland area near the Stiperstones, it passed so close over the sunroof I could see the brown of the streak behind the eye. A truly magnificent bird, unless you happen to be the fisherman who wanted to catch that massive trout ! Interesting that they clearly take sea fish, although plaice and dabs do inhabit the tidal areas of rivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llanshooter Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Once had the privilege of watching an osprey hunting o the river Tay when I was fishing for salmon. Saw deer moving through the wood at the side of the river same day. Next day watched a pine marten swim the river. Even caught a salmon that week. Best week out ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
