Kind of looks like he was smiling at the camera!  Image hosted by forum (757779) © snegron [SHARE LINK] THIS IS A LOW QUALITY PREVIEW. Please log in to see the good quality stuff.

Eagles will soon be returning to this area looking forward to getting some photos.  Thanks! I'm guessing about 150 to 200 feet away. I cropped this shot from the original image. I wish I would have had longer/better glass with me at the time.

This is truly different.! Thanks! There are several eagles scattered throughout my neighborhood. There was a recent news article about a "love triangle" that ended tragically for one of the eagles; while the male egle was away at rehab for some injury, a younger male moved into the nest with the female. When the older eagle got out of rehab and returned to the nest he found the new younger male had moved in. A fight took place and the older male eagle lost the battle and his life. I wonder if this pic is of the younger male eagle who might be displying a triumphant grin... ߘ
