Bald Eagle banks hard

February 8, 2015 by Tony 1 Comment

This mature eagle was performing a flyover of a pond when it spotted a fish of interest and banked hard and dived for the water.  Despite their massive size, their agility and speed is amazing.  Since Friday I have taken over 1,000 images of these amazing raptors thanks to an opportunity to go where a number of them were very active.  This shot is one of my favorites.  

Scroll down below the main image for more photos from the day with the eagles.
