Untagged Bald Eagle in Lexington, KY. Been looking for him for sometime; finally caught up this morning. He was on the opposite bank of the lake; prolly ~500ft away.

5D3
SOOC
100% crop
Neutral
400 5.6L + 2x ii
Pillow on tripod (don't have a collar :oops: )
Zoomed in, focused manually (haven't upgraded firmware for F8 center point focusing yet)

Actually, that won't work anyway, I'd be at F11.

Need a 1.4 .. better yet, an 800L :)
