I was having focus issues so I finally gave up and went home. This is one of three eagles nesting a few miles from my house. After feasting on some sort of critter, it took off and flew right over me and several other photographers standing on the side of the road. Yep, it was litreally a drive by shooting!

My exact thoughts, Tim. He flew right over us, but to the left a little bit. There is a golf course across the road so I think he decided to go squirrel hunting or wabbit!
