| Caption : | This is a classic shot of a Bald Eagle with a fish in its talons, but although this type of image is fairly familiar to people, it is not all that common for eagles. They miss their prey much more often than they catch it. On this particular occasion, I was photographing some plants on the beach with a long lens, when this eagle launched out of a tree near the water’s edge. I didn’t even know that it was there when it suddenly glided out, just above my head. It dipped down to the water, extended its legs and then scooped up this fish and returned to its nest. |
