Had a decent weekend with the Eagles but it's starting to thin out I think. But as always...a great time!

Awesome shots, this is the caliber of work that I aim to achieve one day. I am new to shooting eagles...do they generally thin out at this time of year? Until when? I'm shooting on Vancouver Island.

Again, great pictures. All of them!

You saw more last weekend than I saw the past two weekends. I wouldn't say they are thinning out yet. You got some great shots.

Thank you very much Tanner! I believe the season here is usually Dec. through Feb.

Thanks Chris! When we were there 2 weeks ago, there was a constant 20-30+ all day. We got there about 2:30 this past Saturday and was told the action was better earlier and was very slow when we got there with only about 15 or so Eagles. And Sunday was very slow with maybe 10-12 eagles. There were times when we could only see 3 or 4 at one time. Maybe not thinning out, but definitely spreading out. Gonna try and get back up there tomorrow if the weather cooperates and I'll check back in here with a count. Would love to see it last at least a few more weeks ;)
