One of the absolute highlights of Florida to me is the Merrit Island National Wildlife Refuge - Black Point Wildlife Drive. The 7-mile, one-way drive follows a dike road around several shallow marsh impoundments and through pine flat woods. And then you might see this bird. I saw it sitting far far away but managed to pull of this lucky shot with my 300 mm lens. Although I have many shots of Bald Eagles, this is actually the first photograph I ever made of one in the wild.

Paul are you using a treatment or filter to enhance the clarity and color? I noticed the same brilliance in your pelican capture as well. Amazing!!

And with my IPad I can zoom in closer bring out all the detail in the birds feathers and see the stunning beak and sharp looking eye.Plus lovely natural colours and perfect composition too.Also the blue sky backdrop is amazing as well.

I've been there but never lucky enough to see a bald eagle, good capture of him sitting on a bare limb against the blue sky

Paul I don't believe it could get any better than this...a fine natural perch, the bird has it's eye to you, a gorgeous blue sky with clouds, and sharp as a tack...all that with a 300mm lens. That is awesome friend and amazing.
