Printed on Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308gsm.

The osprey is the fish hawk, and no raptor belongs over water the way this one does. A fine-art study in the Audubon tradition, drawn to carry the bird’s white underparts, the dark bandit mask through the eye, and the long, angled wings that mark it out from every other hawk in the sky.

Where to hang it

This is the lake house print. It suits a boathouse, a cabin, a den, a screened porch, anywhere with a view of water or a wish for one. Give it a little wall to breathe and hang it where the eye lands on the way in.

Best gift for

A fishing family, a keen angler, or anyone with a place on a lake or river. The osprey is the knowing, personal gift for people whose summers are spent near the water, and a warm alternative to the more expected bald eagle.

Paper and finish

Unframed prints come on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, a heavyweight cotton rag with a soft matte surface and true archival life. The framed option is set in a classic moulding, glazed and ready to hang, in black, white or natural.

Sizes

Three sizes: 8x10, 16x20 and 24x30 inches, or an instant digital download at $9. Prints from $39. Framed from $99.

About the bird

The osprey is the only hawk that hunts fish almost exclusively, and one of the most widespread birds of prey on earth, found on every continent except Antarctica. It hovers, folds, and hits the water feet first, closing barbed pads and a reversible outer toe around its catch. Once badly hit by DDT, it has recovered strongly and now nests on channel markers, poles and platforms up and down the coast and the inland lakes.
