I spent countless days and weeks spread over almost two years, waiting for this osprey to allow me to capture it hunting in all its glory. But that time and effort pales into insignificance when you consider the raptor flies 6,700km twice a year just to ensure it is in the prime location for the breeding season. With so much attention focused on Africa’s big mammals and predators, once in a while it is worth considering some of the astounding feats of the rest of the animal kingdom.
