Bald Eagles gather in February at Farmington Bay, Utah to enjoy fresh sushi....mostly carp. Here's a few flight shots that I was able to get of mature bald eagles and an immature bald eagle (probably 2-3 years old).

Larry, Thanks! Bald eagles are definitely one of my favorites as well.
Great captures. To far to go but thanks for sharing.

Nice! Like them all but my favorite is #4. Sometimes like the immatures more than the adults to photograph. Guess its just the variety of their coloration. Also, here like the wing positions as the bird begins to make a left turn and the view of its ventral side. Nice background as well. Alls comes together for me in that shot.
Thanks for sharing!

Camera Man, Thanks. Indeed too far from Michigan! Hopefully, a few of the eagles will stop for a visit in Michigan during their travels.

Nalu, I'm glad you enjoyed them. Yes, the mottled brown and white coloring of the juveniles makes them quite interesting. Thanks for the insightful comments on #4.
