First off, I promise not all of my pictures will be of birds!

I saw this big guy fly right over my head, very close to my head, actually. Luckily, he decided to have lunch on a tree close to our house. I was able to get inside and get the camera while he was still eating. Not a bad shot overall.

Here is another picture of one of the eagles mentioned yesterday. I have several very good pictures but they are all variations on these. I have to go back and see if I can get a picture of them sitting in the tree. That was beautiful.

As we were driving home today from some running, we saw a pair of bald eagles sitting in a tree. HUGE eagles sitting in a tree. I got turned around, stopped, got on the Canon 75-200 F/2.8 L lens. As I was walking towards them, they took off. I’m not sure if they were hungry or I spooked them. Either way, they took off quickly.

This is the first shot I got off before they went too far away. There are several others. I hope to get a few more posted shortly. The detail in this one at full size is incredible. The claw underneath, the curve of the beak, the individual feathers. Awesome!
