Very nice. Surprised he didn't fly away. You had to be pretty close.

Welcome to POTN & the bird forum Paul. Interesting shot and I'm not sure how the eagle got that elk into the river :)

Hi all, thanks for the comments. The eagle was about 20 or so feet away when I took the shot, and no it just stayed there gaurding his lunch.
