Young Eagle catching the late afternoon sun.

This eagle was sitting just along the Englishman river bank, we were so close this is not a crop, I nearly fell in the river as I had to lean over one side to clear tree branches. He was not at all put out at two idiots teetering on the banks of a river in full flood leaning over and pointing cameras at him....

I can't believe he stayed there! They NEVER stay when I get remotely close. Beautiful shot!
