Juvenile Bald Eagle

Hey guys,
Here's a juvenile Bald Eagle shot in Western Massachusetts a week ago. I found 8 juveniles and 2 adults but couldn't get any good shots of the adults as they stayed too far away. Hope you like it! Thanks in advance for all your comments and critiques!

Nice. I have a side view of a flying juvenile similar to this. The light in his eye is just right.

Very nice flight shot. Wish the under wings was brighter.

Nice wing detail and the eye has a good reflection as well. I wish they'd fly close enough for full frame, eh?

Very nice flight shot. Great details. The large version is definitely worth viewing. Interesting eye color: a bit more reddish than I'm "used to".
