BORB
Me when I gryphon-ify my oc for absolutely no reason (bearded vulture??osprey??bobcat??smilodon?? Idk).
don’t ask me why the 2 images r sideways, idk
SO I designed this osprey pattern for a stained glass piece, but I cannot for the life of me decide on a color scheme. Thoughts, anyone?
(And by the way, if it occurs to anyone, my profile picture is indeed a stained glass piece that I designed and made myself.)
(Also an osprey is my patronus on pottermore so if I’m being entirely honest that’s what inspired this lol)
8. Osprey (Pandion haliaetus)
Most times I look up and see a large bird flying, I assume it's either: a.) a Vulture b.) a Seagull Recently, I've been able to see that a large amount of these giants birds I see flying around water are actually Osprey! However, I prefer their cooler name: The Seahawk.
These guys are basically bad-ass versions of seagulls, and it's sick. I love their white feathers! They also have a HUGE wingspan. Easily one of my new favorite birds to see around!
There's even a couple of protected nests near me, so I might update from time to time. Here's the most recent photo I've taken, which I assume is an angry momma waiting for her husband to bring home dinner.
