More to come I was out yesterday and found these guys fighting over fish have only been able to get to a couple ( of about 500 ) so more to come if you want to see more that is. The light wasn't great very over cast.

You've got some great shots Mike. It looks to me that there is a processing issue. Possibily too much contrast and/or over sharpening on some of the shots. The first shot has great potential. I would love to have the opportunity to get shots like those.

Great action shots Mike. Our eagle season is effectively over, except for the occasional flyby. Must be nice to have them around all the time. :)

The light condition were not great so prosseing is an issue I'll have a go at some of them again and see what I come up with. Thank you for your comments.

Thank you and sorry to hear that it's over I have to look kind of hard and get lucky until mid April or so when there should be more around.
