These were taken at low tide out on the tidal flats. Wanted to get a lower angle on the second photo but was unable to without losing the eagle behind a sand bar.

At low tide they are out digging in the sand for clams and stuff like that to eat. The locals up here call mud birds or mud eagles. The tide in and around the cook inlet in Alaska has one of the highest tide changes in the world. At different times the tide can change as much as 30 feet, so when the tide it out it exposes a lot of the ocean bottom that would normally be covered with 20 or more feet of water. 1D Mark IV, 5D Mark III, 7D, 1.4X MkIII, 2X MkIII, 17-40mm L, 70-200mm f2.8 IS Mk II L, 100mm macro, 500mm f4 IS L, 24-105mm f4 L, 580 EX II, 550EX
