Conrad, the eagles are getting better, you got an Ivory Billed Woodpecker in flight, and the horse is well done.
I am also hoping to see more of the \"ordinary\" birds and animals from you where access is not a limiting factor to your photography. Eagles are fine, just that being quite distant, one can only get a limited mileage out of them photographically.
Tony Markle (Imagemaster) gets very interesting and very well crafted eagle shots with the 100-400, they are in the class of their own. However, the key IMO is that in addition to his skill, he has a superb access to the birds in some beautiful natural habitat plus he probably uses a blind too.
I for one would rather see a well done image of a chicken than a very large crop of an eagle in the empty sky. Here is my chicken for ya done with the 400 f/5.6.
