Following jederick alert that the eagles were back at Farmington Bay, I drove the 2 hours to check them out. There were not as many as he saw, but still plenty to get some good photos. There were also lots of other birds there including thousands of tundra swans. Some of the eagles were feeding among pelicans, ducks, gulls and an occasional great blue heron.
The altercation with the juvie eagle is fantastic, made all the more enjoyable by the dis-interested bystanders. Great series!
Great shots! The shot with the adult and juvenile bald eagles looks like a wall-hanger. The eagle eating the carp is also very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Linda and Steve and kpmac. There were several tussles during the time I was there. Some between juveniles and adults, but some were betweem two or three adults. It was fun to watch.
Excellent series, Riverrat2 and some beautiful downloads and double-clicks!
I love your tundra Swan! I was there this morning and you are right about the thousands of swans!
But too far away for me. Great Eagle shots.
