American Eagle

St. Charles Parish

Not the best light or as good as I would like, but with an eagle you take what you can get.

Canon EOS 40D
1/1000s f/11.0 at 300.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

A classic American Eagle, great catch, Coleen, so well done.

Perfect Pose. Actually I like the light. It looks more natural. Sometimes getting the perfect light takes away from the naturalness. You get the defining characteristics here:
White head and tail, fingered wings and those powerful talons.

Very nice capture, Coleen..Hopefull one day I'll see one of these guys, when I have my camera...V

Those Eagles just don't take the cute to turn into the sun or fly the other direction very well. I think any picture of a eagle is wonderful.

Fantastic capture. The light is hard to deal with but this is still majestic!

Still an impressive and nice shot against the backlight. I just love to see those claws extended! CC
