I have been following the reports of the Bald Eagles at
Pahranagat NWR, Nevada 80 miles north of Las Vegas for some time. Yesterday I finnaly got the chance to go check them out. I can't wait to go back. Hope you enjoy them.

I did not get that many oppertunities for in flight shots but did get a few. I think it will take a few more times going to get better positioning.

Awesome, I love the middle finger shot. It almost looks like hes laughing at you while flipping the bird.

Great shots, Randy. I love the one where he seems to say: NO pictures, NO pictures... :)

Excellent series. Looks like the one with the dirty beak/head is just coming into maturity...maybe a 4-4 1/2 year old bird.

Wonderful shots!! How exciting to get your first eagle shots! I am in search of my first eagle shots too. I live in So. California. Do you know how much longer the Eagles will be there (usual timeline anyway)? Were they easy to find?

I would think they would stay for a few more month. They were very easy to locate.
