Perfect timing on this face on capture,and well focused, he looks good sitting in the tree watching you, watching him. :) Tick I hope to get one of an eagle one day. Happy New Year! tigz =^..^=
She/he has you in their cross sights that's for sure Tic, did you have tuna sandwiches in your pocket? A very good shot I can imagine you flapping around with some big lens here.
Great shot Tick!!! So nice to see the bald eagles are thriving so well. The mating season is due to get underway in a few weeks with the pair of eagles in Decorah. Wishing you and yours a Joyous, Prosperous and Humorous New Year!!!
Of course he was looking at you; dressed in that top hat with your manly chest bearing the "Happy New Year" banner. Good one, Tick...and...HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Another great looking capture I love the proud look on the bird and stunning blue sky backdrop. Plus when you enlarge the photo the detail is stunning as well.
I think he was wishing you'd $*() off so he could carry on looking for lunch undisturbed. Gotta love that bird and God bless America, great pic! Happy new year Tick
upon close inspection of this picture TicK, i took a survey between Detroit & Chicago.. not looking good buddy! 86% said it looks to be that of a chicken..the other 14% said they never been in prison before and its a baldy..huummm idk, rather strange results. hey i only gave out the survey. personally i think its a fine picture of a Baldy :)
Oh boy, you're in trouble now, he's staring right at you. You sure were lucky your grandson got you there before he flew away. Amazing capture & detail
