We stayed two days on San Juan Island, Washington and here are a few pictures of eagles I took.

WOW! I was just there, too. Saw eagles, took pictures, but none worth showing. I was too far away with too short a lens. Saving my pennies for a nicer lens for distance. What equipment did you use?

Thanks Margie B. I have a Canon 60D with a kit lens 18-135. The eagles were feeding in an open field and were so fast I put it on action and just started panning and clicking away. Guess I got very lucky!

I had to do some cropping but was pretty close to them. Thanks for the reply Wildtrk.

Wow! These are excellent shots, saparoo! That eagle has his eye on some lunch, I think.
