I took this photo today on a slightly foggy day of a male and female? Bald Eagle at about 100-125 feet in distance shot at 600mm. They didn't stay together long before one (female ?) flew away.
There were a bunch of us photographers there taking photos.

Canon 6D - Tamron 150-600mm - 1/200 - f/6.3 - ISO @ 800

Thank you, Gary. It was tricky to get both of the Eagles in focus, so I found some middle ground between them to focus on. There eyes were lit up because they were staring at the bright but foggy sky in front of them.

Thank you, bcheary. There was sunshine where I live and then I travel 10 miles to where the Eagles are and I find fog. No snow or rain, so I guess I can't complain too much. So, I made the best of it and the eagle photos (more to come) turned out OK, not great but OK. If Mother Nature would throw some sunshine our way, I might get a better eagle shot. C'est la vie.
