The osprey sure does look angry/pissed off Mike..
The low brow and tongue action nails it for me.
Cool capture, well done

Did you take its fish? Great capture of the expression! The OOF plants do distract, not much you could do about it would be my guess. Thanks for sharing.

Love that expression! He definitely looks pretty cranky. Great timing Mike!

Howard is right...he really doesn't look very happy. I like the personality this shows i the bird, but do find the FG leaf a bit unfortunate.
