What another idiot with a camera!

Down in Brian's territory today, Cowichan River estuary. This young eagle had been chasing gulls and sat for a moment on a power pole. Four people all rushed up to take a photo.

Love the look!

WOW!!
Now this is great Jess. Thanks for posting this size of shot as the details really pop.
Fantastic to nail a wild raptor when they only get close for a few seconds. You were in great form here with spot on exposure and perfect shutter speed.
And love that 420mm focal length too....

He is giving you the evil eye!! Looks a might cross-eyed though! Excellent detail and pose.
