10 Juvie landing in the edge of the river


11 Preparing to land in the trees


12 Must be eagle happy hour...


13 Another inflight.


14 Juvie


15 In flight


16 Eagle #3 decided to land whether or not eagle #2 liked it or not. This was across the river so not the best quality, but my favorite part is how eagle #1 on the end just watches all of this.

What lens/settings were you using?

[CaraRose]

What lens/settings were you using?

I had a rented 300mm 2.8L IS with a 2x TC, and a 60D. Shot from a monopod with a ball head. Manual settings... For the most part kept it on single point af.

Nice action....I wish I had a feeding spot around here like that! But I guess the up close nest will have to do

Hey Cara I am starting to hate you more then eric ........ J/K

Awesome shots !!!!!

I finally got a nice day today and I am going to try and get to the hudson river to see some eagles

CaraRose, what do I say...I don't think I have seen pictures of so many baldies in one place at one time - great shots - thanks for sharing. We have a few that over-winter along the river as long as they can find food where the water is open, but nothing like this. I like the last two showing one trying to intrude on the other - I find it interesting to watch birds in groups or "flocks" and how they interact, or not, with each other.

Cheers,

WesternGuy
