Great capture. I like the composition as well. My only nit (I'm assuming you asked) is the warmth of the image.

Looks a tiny bit green, but otherwise, that's a shot to be happy with...great to catch them down like that!

Yes, WB is off a bit, but a nice shot nonetheless.

Pretty eagle-all that mottling, must be one of last year's babies? The ones I watch seem to lose the white in their bodies before any other changes.Interesting pose too.
