Looks angry too! Big Grin

Spectacular capture though, everything looks really nice and sharp and the eye is just amazing!

An amazing and expressive photo. It's more than just another eagle capture. Congrats--this is a winner in my book.

Nikon D3100 with Tokina 28-70mm f3.5, (I like to use a Vivitar .43x aux on the 28-70mm Tokina), Nikkor 10.5 mm fisheye, Quanteray 70-300mm f4.5, ProOptic 500 mm f6.3 mirror lens. http://donschaefferphoto.blogspot.com/

Thanks ST & Don. I was going to put it in snapshots, as that is really what it is.
If someone sticks a bird in your face and holds it long enough for you to focus..Rolleyes Ah well!

They went round the onlookers with the birds, ( bald eagle, sea eagle, couple of owls, vulture, etc.) but didn't stop long enough for all the birds to have a look at you. :/

I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't want to mess with that bird! A very nice shot, and leagues away from the usual 'small bird sitting in a tree over there, maybe silhouetted against a cloudy sky' genre. Remarkable.
