...when flying with a fish in their talons they will orient it to minimize drag -- the fish will face front to back instead of sideways.  It looks like a WWII era plane carrying a torpedo.

Another thing, an Osprey will never accept assistance if he's in the surf -- he knows it is a sure way to hurt his wing.
