I have had a nemesis and bald eagle is his name. I have not been able to get any usable shots on one for over two years. The other day, I finally got what I think were decent shots. The struggle is real though, the magpies... dang you magpies.... Thanks for looking. Cole

Thanks, I wasn't sure if I liked the 3rd one, but it has quickly become my favorite. It tells a story for sure.
