Bald Eagle Fishing
I went out on the James River south of Richmond last weekend and this area has a thriving population of eagles. In the 1970's there was only a couple of dozen or so breeding pairs in Virginia and today there is over 700 and growing.

Mike, those are fantastic shots! Did you use a 300mm or 500mm tele with x2 convertor? Was the lens on tripod?

Wow those are some amazing shots. Unbelievable that you were able to capture the Bald eagle grabbing a fish out of the water.
