Thank you! That shot really captures the motion of the eagle. I've never seen one in the wild - it's always been my dream. You're so lucky you got to see that
:-D

I do like to go to Alaska every year just for the photography... (caveat: I am not a bird shooter so I don't have any long lenses by birder standards)

Thank You. I first thought a seagull was approaching. When I looked through the 300mm lens I realized it was an Eagle, so I started to pan with the motion. That was the only shot I made, and was very lucky to get it.
Nice image of the birds, especially the Bokeh. I am realizing that if I can't fill the image with the lens, I should avoid taking the shot. I used to crop the image to achieve a look of closeness, but the quality is not what I am seeking.
I captured this image of a Bald Eagle at the Anchorage Zoo, there was just the bars in the way to obscure the view.

IS is "Image Stabilization".. It's Canon's version. Nikon call theirs VR for "Vibration Reduction"..
It's a great breakthrough for long lenses :thumbup:
