I went to Boundary Bay in British Columbia to photograph snowy owls a few years back. I also saw a few bald eagles. This one was coming in for a landing atop a leafless tree. Nikon D800 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 310mm) ISO 800, f/4 at 1/1250th of a second.

Thanks Sue. I need to make a trip to Alaska sometime soon to photograph them in abundance.
That’s a trip that is on my bucket list!
Great shot!! Really shows the detail of all those feathers working to navigate the landing and the power of this gorgeous raptor!
Thanks Karen. I was pretty close to this one so able to get that extra detail.
Fabulous shot!
Thanks Mom.
You saw a bald eagle and the eagle saw a bald crane. It was a special day for everyone.
True that, Louis.
Wow! Those talons, that wingspan! Such a beautiful and powerful creature!
Thanks Angelina, they are certainly majestic.
Love it. Great action shot!
Thanks Rachel.
FABULOUS! So glad he is our National Symbol, and this phot shows why!!
No doubt, Laura. We picked a good one.
