Happy Wednesday!

Some more eagle images for you today.  I want to show you some of my mistakes and what can happen when you get busy visiting with other photographers and not paying attention.  🙂

I was watching some geese fly over the area and happened to notice all the lenses pointing over my head.  I had the lens set on 400 mm and this is what I got.  Not a very good composure but on the other hand you could call it up close and personal. 🙂

For this image I was busy visiting with my friend Burt and totally missed the catch of this juvenile.  He does have a fish in his talons and you can still see the spray of the water.  All I got was three frames of river water before I finally caught up to him.

This guy pivoted and was headed for a catch.  I did a good job of following him down until all I could see in my view finder was brown blur.  There were photographers leaning over the railing and I was getting the back of their insulated jackets.  So I missed his catch as well.

Here is another miss.  I caught up with him just after he had snagged his lunch.  Probably visiting again.  🙂

There weren’t many juveniles at the lock when I was there.  A couple flew over and I captured this image.  For the most part the adults were having the most success on this day.

That’s it for today.  I have lots more eagle images but I’ll give them a rest for a few days and see if I can find something else of interest.  Truth be told however I could photograph eagles every day and I don’t think I would get tired of them.

Thanks for stopping by the blog.  Enjoy your day and be careful.
