I hope you don't mind.. I think I told you about our awesome White -tailed Eagles. This is the closest I could possibly get and the lady arrived so early, that exposure times were much too long. Blurred!Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
I consider this photo a once-in-a-lifetime-shot, Gary. Pure nature breathing there... you were very lucky to be there and capture this bird in its environment in such a stunning way! Awesome!Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
What the hell is that... I apologize for my photo right below yours, Gary. I wrote a comment, which it would not take, then it put my uploaded photo right below yours, it informed me in my email that my comment on your photo was a comment on mine.... something got mixed up there. I really hope you're not offended!!! So sorry!Carol Engstrom May 26, 2019
Wonderful shots--Gary and birdie. Never see any of these in real life. #28021Gary H. Minish May 26, 2019
Thanks birdie! I've been waiting for that picture :-) I see you have some very impressive eagles also! That's a scene I see quite often; crows and magpies harassing the eagles and trying to steal scraps!Carol, you should visit Alaska. The eagles are almost as common as crows here, just more shy! #28057

Birdie, don't worry about how the photo posted, it doesn't bother me a bit and it only shows up in the discussion anyway. Besides, It makes me proud to have my work displayed next to yours :-) #28059Cathy M. Gromball May 26, 2019
Great shots, both Gary and Birdie!Cathy :) #49462
