Wonderful photos. Where did you see the eagle at? It's been years since I've seen one in South Florida. I'd be tempted to grab my gear and go find them if you could give me a location.

Cool shots, especially the Osprey /Eagle tangle. I witnessed this years ago on Montana , a sight i'll never forget.

Love the squabble. The everglades are ever productive I'd say. Don

Excellent set Rick. Cool action in #5. #1 is my pick of the set. Nice exposure on all visible surfaces of the bird. Has good pop.

The best places for eagles are flamingo around the camp grounds and nine mile pond. They chase the ospreys in both areas. Beat time at nine mile is late afternoon when lighting is at your back. At flamingo time does not matter as it's always backlit.
Good luck
Rick

Wonderful set, RIck! I'm sure you wished for better lighting with the eagle-osprey interaction, but it's still an amazing capture.

An excellent set Rick. Too many great ones to pick, but the red eyes of the Anhinga are wild. ~ Ron

Awesome, I know where I'll be next weekend Are the locations you were at accessible by foot, or should I bring my kayak/canoe?
