Osprey sighting in Oakville!

(Oakville, Ontario)

My two children, aged 13 and 7, asked me to find the name of a large bird they saw while at the local park. The biggest identifying mark they remembered is that the bird was carrying something that looked like a fish and the tail was fanned with black & white dots.

Not sure if it was an Osprey but the video on this website resembled the bird.

Thank you for sending this report of your childrens' sighting to us. I found this picture that shows the tail markings of the Osprey.
