Eagle with lunch
Uploaded: January 06, 2006
Location: Douglas Island, near Juneau, Alaska
Camera settings: f6.3, 1/2000, ISO 400
The eagle caught the fish, which was too heavy to carry in flight. It swam to a rock, where it ate enough to reduce the weight, then flew back to its nest to share the catch with its partner.

I agree with Kay, fantastic capture. I have a great deal of respect for anyone that can get an in flight photograph of an Eagle.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
