Soon after the miss, the eagle saw the fish again, took a sharp turn back to the water, and had his/her prey!

Getting it is one thing, keeping it is another. Great catch for both of you.

True, Jim. I have noticed that eagles and osprey have "firmer grips". Gulls are the worst, maybe because they are holding on to the fish with their beaks and not talons.

The eagles also try to steal fish caught by other fish!

Thank you, Ken. It is more existentially critical for the eagle to get its dinner than for me to get the shot, but the same basic sentiments apply. 🙂
