Gotcha! Bald Eagle snags itself a nice breakfast

My goodness. What a charmed day this past Saturday was. A friend (thank you, Bill!) secured us access to a private pond where Bald Eagles have been hanging out. The action was pretty intermittent but when it did happen, it was fast and furious.

This eagle caught itself one fish but soon returned for another and this image captures that second pass. It was clearly an experienced hunter, never missing once and, for me, yielded probably the best ‘eagle fishing’ pic I have ever taken. Such a thrill!

If you’re interested in a print of this image, it is available. I can see this one hanging on my wall very, very soon. You can too – see here!
