My first eagle shot!

I finally got an eagle shot I'm happy with. Unfortunately, my favorite is one backlit and I couldn't pull any more out of it, but I wanted to include it anyway. He made that quirky face every time he heard the shutter click (he was that low). I see them all the time as pinpoints in the sky, but we stumbled across this spot where they were hanging out completely by accident, and I can't wait to go back. The same two eagles never left our sight the whole time we were there. It was so much fun!

Very nice. I'm jealous as we have only a few around where I live and I've never gotten a decent shot of one.
