I am very proud of this very early morning bald-headed eagle sequence. Extraordinary birds. (click to enlarge)
I was startled yesterday when a great blue heron lifted straight up out of the tall reeds next to me and flew off with his dinner. I was able to swing the camera down fast enough to get off one shot, and this was it. Pretty lucky to capture the enormous wingspan of this sensational bird with his considerable fresh catch of the day. (As always, click for larger image.)
