Young Osprey Taking Off!

Pretty sure this is the baby Osprey that I was watching for a good while. It had been sitting up in the nest screeching and screaming for the longest time. Mom, was in a tree about 50 feet away. I just figured that the youngon was getting hungry and wanted mom to go get lunch. But after seeing it take off, was surprised to see part of a fish in the claw. So not sure what all of the commotion was about.
Really like the way you caught the wings high enough that you could see his face and the patterns at the same time so clearly.
