Awesome shot. One of the nests I watch overlooks a river that is absolutely carpeted with geese. I keep hoping they'll take a goose. It's unlikely buy it does happen.

Sometimes you're the Eagle, and sometimes you're the Widgeon.

Very cool shot H, expertly captured... and bravo for not changing the BG.

Splendid capture. You gotta love the wingspread on the BE !

Agreed. They truly are magnificient creatures....but perhaps not when you're stuck in their talons.

Great image, Henrik! Fabulous details.

Thanks Bonnie. At least the overcast skies are good for helping with the details. See, think positively.

The BG looks great; so blown it looks planned and adds to the look. Great capture. At last, not an eagle with a fish. Lovely shot for the wall! Don

Oh yeah, I planned it that way...

Thanks Don.

Neat shot Henrik. Did it get the duck off the ground or mid-air?

Saw the eagle coming in with it already underneath. He must have just picked it off. 3 other eagles came around in short order to looks for left overs.

Well, it didn't end too well for one of them I was kind of figuring that from the title. I wasn't expecting a Widgeon with a cape taking on the BE

Wonderful sharp shot H, never mind the dishwater sky, that's what we live with and how it looks. Those guys that shoot in the sun have no idea what this kind of shooting is like. You are the master of grey!

Tim

Master of grey

Like master of 50 shades of grey

OK! Wait, for the record, I have not read that book.

Thanks Tim.
