Osprey with Fish at Winter Sunset Reed Bed

by Judith Smith

Orange low-angle sunlight strikes the edge of a frozen reed bed in Liaoning, illuminating an osprey perched on a bleached stalk. The bird grips a silver fish in its talons, its dark feathers glowing against the dramatic, heavy clouds overhead. Bare reed stems stand rigid in the dead of winter, their pale tops catching the fading light. The water below reflects the sky's deepening hues, while the osprey's white head turns sharply toward the horizon. One droplet of water rests on the tip of a nearby reed, mirroring the orange glow.
