Another of the many captures I took last weekend.

This eagle hot spot only lasted a few days but it was absolutely awesome! Our nation’s emblem put on one heck of a show and gave me some incredible memories, including this one. It approached from behind the tree fast and low, popping up and climbing at a high rate of speed before dropping down and grabbing the branch.

As you look at this image, you are likely most drawn to that impressive six+ foot wingspan. Goodness!
