Eagle season
There have been a few eagles (10-15) here on the river for a while, but this week they have moved in and there are 40-50 here now. Just posting this to let anyone interested know what is happening. This was a decent shot even though there is only the one eagle in it, had several with 4-5 in the frame and one pair has 9 in the BG.

Nice shot. Thanks for the update. I hope to get down that way this winter to photograph Eagles.

Good catch, Kendall! When you get some more shots of the Eagles, why not post some in our new MWNP gallery? :smile:

Great action shot! However, I would tone down the eagles head, it looks a bit blown out.
