Tansy

Out checking on the osprey yesterday, the two biggest have left the nest now and the smallest one is being tended to by the adults until it can fly off.  I don't think it will be to much longer until it takes flight.
While waiting for the osprey to appear I took some shots of a grasshopper eating this Tansy flower head.
 Adult landing on nest, young bird is tucked down in nest.

A great shot of the osprey! I was also watching tansy on a roadside the other day and thinking about picking some to dry. But I decided that they were best where they stood.

Ella,
Do they have Ospreys in Sweden?
