Beautiful.
Well that's a sequel to your others and answers more my query re room for its wings in take-off from such places.
You caught these really nicely.
Such majestic creatures.

Another shot from Alaska. I have to say this was certainly the place to go for eagle action, I am already feeling the urge to return next year, the trouble is it offers so much more than eagles it is hard to choose!

Thank you very much, Richard. The eagle usually makes a powerful leap to get a bit open before it fully spreads its wings.

The bald eagles just add to the existing nest each year. The nest is so deep now that we can't see the chicks until they are pretty big.

Wonderful shot, Paul. Love the sharpness and detail.
