An osprey catches its prey by diving into the water from the air, typically from a height of 30 to 100 feet. It uses its keen eyesight to spot fish swimming below the surface. Once it identifies a target, the osprey plunges down, extending its talons to grasp the fish with remarkable precision and strength, often submerging partially in the water. After capturing its prey, the osprey takes off and carries the fish back to a perch or nest to consume it.
