Teenage Bald Eagles

When I got back from Bosque I had to go scout for elk for a week so I didn't get down to the lake to check on Bald Eagles. I finished scouting for the outfitter so I went to the lake this morning and YES some bald eagles are back for the winter. Going back tomorrow to find a mature one..

Hey Wacky, those are again great shots. What length lens are you using to get so close? Those guys don't exactly
lounge around and pose while they get photographed...

ahh, I see in your Harrier series you have the 500 mm f4..
that is a great series as well, really hard to get the angle on those fliers like those, great shots again..
keep em coming..
