Beautiful! The sun shining through this royal beak highlights -- literally! -- how formidable a predator he is (even though his primary weapons are his talons). It's wonderfully close, too.

I can only imagine what a thrill it would be to see one, as they don't live in my area. This is a wonderful capture.

..a 94 c index? I may not be bald, but I am envious of this wonderful capture of yours..It's so awesome to have been vindicated in the voting booth. I met your bird friend there first and here second and it's gratifying to know that others had the same high opinon of your work that I did, even though I didn't have the opportunity to even look to see who had done it, 'cause I had a cousin of his in the oven..lol ;)PJ

This is an amazing shot Jen. You must be very proud of it. To get that close and to be able to capture it as well - it does not get better than that. I have never seen a real eagle so thank you for letting me get this close too :)

A fantastic capture Jen and most certainly a keeper. Rarely do we get to see one of these beautiful birds up close and on the ground. Compliments!

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

It's a very nice shot, one of the best. I've always wondered why these birds look angry?
