I like that
Thank you Jaded.
It depended on a lot of things happening all at once -
i) suitable height of tide,
ii) wind direction (Osprey had to face the same way as the boat),
iii) the bird had to catch a fish for breakfast,
iv) the bird had to land on the boat superstructure to eat the fish,
v) there had to be a dusty atmosphere and no clouds (good chance of that this time of year in Egypt)
vi) boat had to be moored in exactly the same spot as the day before, (that was pure fluke).
vii) me stirring from my slumber in time.
