Stunning eagle image Jim. We spent Fri. and Sat. watching eagles in Lackawaxen, PA. but I got nothing like this! In fact I'm not happy with even one shot. It was still fun watching them but between it being 18 degrees and them being too far away we decided to try again in April. Huge congratulations on your wonderful and well deserved POTD! #8329064
