I was expecting something like a Hanglider
or ultralite with a mullet dangling from the right wing

Those birds are giving you some fine opportunities Dick, and you are certainly making the most of them! Great capture!

Thank you everyone! I get out as much as I can to take photos, especially of Eagles!

A lot of the local photographers are starting to call me "The Eagle Whisperer" because of the way I can somehow get much closer to the Eagles than they can.

I'm not about to tell them that Camo clothes and Very slow movements are the key. Plus the use of Long Lenses and a steady hand to get crisp, clear shots that give me the chance to crop in a Long ways!

Richard,

Fantastic shot my friend. The fine details are magnificent in this photo.

OH, I didn't remember you taking my photo....you are sneaky !!!!!


My Daughter who has a Photography business took the photo of the one in my avatar and gifted me with it. I just love the Bald Eagles.
