Here's a shot taken at Bosque del Apache. My trip there was especially to see a Bald Eagle - and finally, on my last day there, I managed to get some shots.

If you go to the link below and click slideshow (top right) you'll flip through the 60 pics in about 3 minutes. You'll see how 1 Bald Eagle was trying to have a nice goose lunch, but a Harrier and 3 other Eagles were harassing him.

Great stuff to see.. but it was a cloudy grey day so the pics are not so great. My fave is the one that should be captioned "open mouth, insert foot". Gross, but funny. ;-)

Great series Lazy. Scratch the Bald Eagle off the list. Now you need a Great Grey Owl.:confused::):):)

That is an excellent series of pictures. I notice there are 2-3 where the eagle is looking straight at you, so obviously knew, and didn't mind you being there :-)

Great shot! I was wondering where you had been. I haven't seen you around here in a while.

Great shots. not sure if I am the only one seeing this correctly or it could be just me.. is the images a little dark? This is something I am trying to figure out because with my Drebel and a friend's 20D, we are getting similar results. Is this a normal exposure?
