Yup, that thar is an Osprey. We used to have a pair that nested in a dead pine tree right beside Anclote Key Lighthouse. They even raised a couple of chicks during the restoration with all the equipment running directly underneath of the tree they nested in. A lot of us used to enjoy looking down into the nest from the top of the tower. A pair of Horned Owls ran them out of the nest last spring. Now the nest is gone. The Ospreys are still in the area, about 100 yards away but it just aint the same.
