The Osprey (Pandion haliaetus) is a [[fish-eating]] [[hawk]] found along coastlines and around [[marshes]], lakes, and rivers almost worldwide. Ospreys are often seen [[flying]] over water searching for prey, then hovering and plunging feet first to capture a fish in their talons (fish are normally carried head first and belly down). [[Bald Eagles]] may sometimes chase them and force them to drop their catch. During migration, Ospreys may be seen far from water, even over deserts. Migrants travel singly, not in flocks. The Osprey's diet consists almost entirely of fish, generally in the range of 10 to 30 inch in length. Rarely, small mammals, birds, or reptiles may be eaten.
