One Sunday afternoon, my family decided to visit a scenic place we had never been to. We walked down the trail for a little while, which led to an open field of grass. There was an opening in the trees and brush, which led to a marshy area. I spotted something on top of a high wooden nesting box in the marsh. It was hard to tell what it was at first, so I used my dad’s zoom camera as binoculars. I soon realized that it was a mother osprey with her babies. I took some photos as the mother spread her wings over her babies. The babies took turns popping their heads up to look towards me. It was interesting to see how similar the babies looked to their mother, even though they were much different in size.
