the eagles remain this mottled color until they are about 4 years old. at that time (although it happens gradually) their heads turn white and the body gets a deeper brown.

A fantastic shot Jen. It's amazing how the eagles coloration gradually turns. Can't wait to see more of your trip to Alaska.

He is well camouflaged against the sand and stone Jen and looks like he has something to eat there too! Wonderful capture. I bet you were glad he sat still while you too the photograph.

I've seen quite a few eagle pictures and most of them were mature. But I really do like this because it shows some of their wonderfully strange cycles and growing up stages.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.

Thanks for the info on this young eagle. This is a well done capture. Nice detail with the feathers on his neck and that brutal but necessary beak. Good texture with the sand and rocks. Good calm blue river/lake background. Neat you are in an area where you can find these fantastic birds. Great work, as usual Jen :))
