Eye and talons. Portrait of a white tailed eagle

Taken in Hungary . Long lens and big crop. But it is a change from ''in the environment' shots.

Canon EOS 1D X • Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM @275mm • 1/1600 • f/9 • ISO 3200

That's seriously nice.
You certainly captured the tools of the trade as well as the magnificence of this regal beauty.

Thank you Richard. And especially for taking the time to comment.

Wonderful capture! You said, "big crop." I'd say, "effective and engaging crop." And the timing of the original capture is great.

Thank you Dave. It was fun to take too.
