Birds Bald Eagles

[slade]

There's two bald eagles at the lake where I work/live. They tend to disappear for a week or two at a time and then are very active for about the same time. Anyway, haven't seen them in a while and then while eating lunch someone spotted the dive into the water. Ran to get the camera and... finally!
I'm pretty happy with how they came out. This setup is the first one I've had that was really capable of anything like this so I still need a lot of practice. Hoping to get some fishing next time too.
