Great shot Ted. Good timing. (Is that a remote control fishing eagle? )

.....I initially missed the GPS device attached to the back. Thanks for the reply.

You wouldn't happen to have an image showing the band would you. I'd like to pass the image onto the CCB that tracks these Eagles. They'd be pleased to see an image of one of them in action. I'm pretty sure this one is tracked by the CCB...the same orginazation that installed the tracking device on the Eaglet from last years nest.

Duane:

Thanks for the ongoing conversation.

Ted, that's it buddy, I am going to the same hobby shot that you and Duane go to and get me one of these radio controlled eagles to photograph buddy

Seriously the shot is cool. The eye contact is there, and there is a story being told with the fish and those talons and the water trailing off that this one was just plucked out of the water! Suggestion, open up the shadows a bit to bring more detail to the talons and underwing area. If needed perhaps if you are OK with it add a spark of saturation to the legs. Cool image and I like it!!

Super shot, Ted. Great to see you got a shot of an eagle with a tracking device. Nice detail, pose and eye -- and with a fish to boot!!! Awesome.

Ted, Great shot! I believe this is the same bird that we saw down there last year. Some of the regulars down there had mentioned they got a good look at the tag and it was the same. again nice shooting.

What makes this picture GREAT is the contrast between the angled view of the head, and the fish in the talons---Great stuff.


Rextillion, thanks for the reply, it was a great feeling with my finger on the shuter button and the eagle in my view finder.

Nice shot Ted! It is nicely focused and sharp. For crits, it would be better if it wasn't going away from you, it barely is so it does work. The tail looks a bit hot, they are real hard to expose It still is a keeper

That must be one bad Eagle, Ted. not only does it have handcuffs on both legs they also put a tracking bracelette of the poor thing. One of the local gang members I presume

Excellent grab, Sir!
