Overcast haze meant perfect light on this adult bald eagle as it flew by

Caught this juvenile the same day -- didn't realize until I looked at the results at home that it had me in its sights

There will be days when you get the shot(s) you missed days, months or years before.

Great shots. I only had the chance once to catch a Bald Eagle in the wild.

The second picture looks like he is looking at himself in the lens!
