Osprey

Perhaps no diving bird is more amazing than an Osprey at the moment its talons pierce the water.  Watch Nature: Moment of Impact: Jungle to see an osprey dive.  (Photo by Michael Wulf. ) I tried my hand at drawing the photo above, which reminds me of this drawing of a griffin, from Bill Peet's "Pinkish Purplish Bluish Egg".
