Bald eagle hand held @ approximately 100 yards

Bald eagles aren't very common here in southwest Virginia, But there are a couple. I am fortunate to have located a nesting pair. They are across the river from where I can get to, the nest is 385 yards away according to my range finder. I was driving down to the river when I spotted this one in an old tree near the road. I had time to pull into a cemetery parking lot and get this shot. I have cropped it a little from the original.

Nice shot especially at 100 yards. What was camera, lens focal length, etc. They're always exciting to see and photograph in areas where the population is small.

I was using a Nikon D610 with a Sigma 150-600 with a 1.5 teleconverter. The ISO was at 400, f8.5, focal length 750mm, shutter speed was 1/2500. I have clicked the store original button on this now. Thanks to all for the kind comments.
