The month of June is fun for eagles on the Wallace River in Nova Scotia. There's a fish locally called gaspereau (known as alewives in most other areas) that fills the river with spawning fish. They flip and jump and splash in the shallows as they make their future generations. No wonder the eagles love them. It always amazes me how nature looks after its own, with the gaspereau run happening at the same time as the baby eagles fledge and must learn how to fish on their own. Al pics taken at 1000 mm with a 2X extender on a Canon 500mm f/4 II lens.
