Bald Eagle

Montz

Gayle and I caught this beauty right by the house. He was sitting in one of the tallest trees behind the levee watching the river for a meal. The sun was very bright and we could not get around the trees. BTW this was about the biggest bald I have ever seen.

Nikon D70 ,Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF AF
1/640s f/6.7 at 500.0mm full exif

Agreed. How great to be that close. My only shot of an eagle is about 1/2 miles away!!!

Nice capture, Breland. I saw two when I was golfing yesterday. They flew into a tree very close to me. It was my luck that I had a golf club instead of a camera in my hand.

What a shot. Great sharpness Breland and the eye is perfectly captured.
I've never been that close to one, ever.

Nice shot. You got his eye perfectly, which, as they say, is the window to the soul. Good job.
