Two bald eagles jousting on the Fox River...Dundee, Illinois, Sunday, December 18...no nest nearby so am not sure if this was about food or territory...they were close to me so I had to keep adjusting for distance to keep them in the frame so I zoomed out and ended up doing more cropping than I would have preferred...
Beautiful shots of the aerial acrobatics 🦅💥🦅💥🦅

Hi, These were directly behind Village Squire...there is a roost tree across the Fox where one often hangs out...best, Dave

Great shooting Zack. This looks like a Bald Eagle couple doing
mating warmup's, they sometimes will mate in flight, quite a sight

You beat me too it. Yes, part of the mating sequence. And the OP captured it very nicely!!
