Now that's a surprise....was it fleeing or swooping at the Eagle?

Duane N... Thanks for viewing. Don`t know what it was doing. I thought it might be a young Eagle. :confused:

Don't sell yourself short...you were there, you took the pic and that's all that matters.

I had a similar experience with a Bald Eagle and Hawk and I didn't know it. Someone else pointed out that my Eagle in-flight had a Coopers Hawk in tow and I didn't realize it but took full credit for the shot. :mrgreen:

Thanks Stormin. This was my second day with this Eagle, first ever Eagle. And I get my first Red tail hawk ever, in the same frame too.
