Juvenile Eagle Flight

Squaw Creek NWR, Missouri

THIS YOUNG EAGLE WAS SITTING WATCHING ME WHEN HE SUDDENLY LAUNCHED INTO THE AIR..

HE CROUCHED AND GATHERED HIMSELF BEFORE JUMPING STRAIGHT UP IN THE AIR

HIS NEXT MOVE WAS TO THRUST HIS WINGS INTO FULL STRETCH

HE WAS VERY CLOSE AND APPEARED TO BE TOTALLY UNAFRAID OF ME

ONE POWERFUL SWEEP OF HIS WINGS WAS ALL HE NEEDED TO RISE INTO THE AIR

What a great series, Tom!!! I'm so envious. I was at Squaw Creek last week & got almost nothing. This is wonderful! Perfect focus for the entire series.
