Say I’m getting a lot of mileage out of this one shoot. This is the fourth post from the Green Island shoot so that’s not bad for a day’s work. I really like these ducks. Four ducks with green heads with their wings in the downward motion and one brown head with wings upright. I don’t know what that means, I’m just making an observation. 🙂

I could look at Eagle pictures all day. I just think they are such an incredible bird with so many unique characteristics. I’m told these are muskrat huts and the Eagles seem to like to sit on top of them. I walked up fairly close to a couple of them. Like I said the other day… there is a fine line between close and too close.

So I may head back down to Green Island this Saturday. My friend Andreas likes to shoot around Sabula, Iowa so I might try that as well.
I’ve really been itching to shoot this week but the weather has been so crappy so far this week that I haven’t been able to shoot anything. I was hoping to shoot some yesterday but it was raining all the way home. Tomorrow is suppose to be a better day weather wise.
Thanks for stopping by. Be careful.

Dave, I believe you did pretty good for the first time shooting eagles. I like the one of the eagle sitting on a muskrat hut the best. It is well composed. Better sharpness comes from more practice and you will see, with any time you go out and shoot eagles or other birds your results will become better. Maybe slowly, but surely.
