I like this one. While the Eagle does show strength, I also see wonder in his eyes. Curiosity! Again , the post processing treatment looks great! #1374255

Thanks Misty. As I was shooting, a small local bird started chirping nearby. That really attracted the eagle's attention and that can be seen in the attentive listening pose here and in the other shots I made. I guess he was looking to see where lunch was. :-) #9386867
