A large raptor not too closely related to any another, that lives on a diet of large fish caught by diving into the water like a kingfisher, pelican or tern. Osprey's migrate, but seem to migrate until they find a place they like (some halfway across the world, while others hardly at all). The Eastern Osprey and smaller Western Osprey (found along Australia's rivers) where recently joined into one species.
