I think they can be opportunistic.

Her wee dogs to wear because of ospreys. After I finished laughing I looked
them up
And they can take small
Mammals such as rabbits if necessary, so a bird may not be out of the question.

Hi,
The other day on Boles Lake Road I saw an Osprey. Seemed a little out of
place but I figured it was resting on its way between Lake Six and Buffalo
Springs. It was on a utility pole, and I noticed that it had something in
its claws. I assumed it was a fish, but when it flew off, it seemed too
ragged to be a fish, and didn't hang limp as a fresh-caught fish would. I
watched it again, a good view in 10X binoculars, after it landed on another
pole. It looked like a bird in its claws. Would they eat a bird?
