Bald Eagle Lands at home


Had a once in a life time opportunity last Wednesday late afternoon.

A Bald Eagle flew past the house and landed in a close tree in the woods next to our house. He was there for about an hour enjoying his dinner. I took over 200 (JPEG & RAW) photos and now have to search through them. I did take a moment though and work on the first good one I saw and the results of the original shot and a cropped / zoomed shot are attached.

I shot this with the Canon 40D and 70-200 and 1.4X multiplier on it (about 300mm) and then zoomed in more in Photoshop.

We have not seen him since, but hope he comes back.

From April 2009
