Super images. You gotta be happy X 10 !

Camera?
Lens?
Exposure?

My eyes got misty at those images! Back in the summer of '59 during collge I worked on Jesse Cutler's farm at " Cutler's Point" that overlooks Mount Johnson Island close to the E. bank of the Susquehannah just a few miles N of Conowingo Dam and the Peach Bottom Nuclear power plant on the W bank. The island was supposed to have been the last known nesting site of Bald eagles in PA. Nary a one to be seen when I was there! I'd sure love to see them back where Nature's God wanted them to be!

Spectacular! On download the first one even seems to have drops of blood dripping from the fish.

Very good results for your first attempt! If you bring up the shadows in post processing, you will be pleased with the added detail in the feathers.
