As The Sun Goes Down

Uploaded: January 28, 2011

Description

Edith on the right and Archie on the left enjoy a peaceful sunset together.The kids are fed and probably sleeping so they have some time alone,except for me as Momma watches.I got my snaps and left them where they are,quietly alone. They had a busy day bringing in food for the Eaglets,I shot 4 food runs and I was only there for three hours so there were more I`m sure.They`ve been here for at least 10 years producing two Eaglets a year,nature is funny. We have a lot to learn from them!.Captured at F/8,1/2000,Iso500,400mm. Will comment tomorrow.

Was just wondering have you ever made books about your friends. Such wonderful images and stories you always have. Today was the first time I have ever had a chance to see eagles about 20 to 30 feet from me. But of course no camera and driving on a road you can't stop on. It was so wonderful I was that close to them. They were just flying around the river and they were right next to the bridge. What an awesome view. A always your images are fantastic. #9217049
