Feeding the Kids

Like all good parents, the bald eagle pair on Skinner Butte take good care of their young. They have hungry mouths to feed! It appears that there are two fuzzy babies in the nest. Here the parent is putting something, perhaps a piece o fish, in one baby's mouth. This is a crop of about half size of a DX frame, using my D800. The scene was very contrasty.

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6D ED VR AF
1/6400s f/5.6 at 400.0mm iso3200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto
