Default Conowingo Dam Eagles........

It was a great experience watching Eagles grab fish like this....Next time I will wait until the weather is clear for better lighting....

Very nice capture. It looks like you had decent light on this one. How was the activity while you were there? I was there about 3 weeks ago and it was a little slow but compared to around here it was busy so I'm debating whether to make another trip.

Thanks everyone........



Candor-

There were 10-15 Eagles there. They kept moving around most of the day, one of the regulars said things were slow. I thought is was great.....
