Wow Hal. Great capture even froma distance. I cant get over the difference in the wing span between the Eagle and the Osprey. I always thought the Osprey was big! #8500270Shelly A. Van Camp March 31, 2010

Now, there's some shot! Have to agree with Pat S., I'm amazed at the difference in wingspan between the two! What a wonderful shot...two raptors at once...I'd be flying higher than them if it was me who managed to capture this!! Well done(as always!), Hal! #8500768Gord MacEachern March 31, 2010

Not a very good shot? You are kidding...right? In my opinion, is an incredible shot, Hal!!! :-) k #8501322Amanda J. Tanner March 31, 2010
A very amazing shot Hal! I think this is an incredible image with two such different birds. Even with the distance you nailed these two which is a rare event. Beautiful work. #8501340Randy D. Dinkins March 31, 2010
Great capture. I'm sure it wasn't easy since these guys are definitely not standing still for you :-).... #8501378Tommy E. Burgess March 31, 2010
This sure looks like gold to me Hal, it's a gem if I ever saw one!!! Over the Winter at the trout park I shot at they feed the eagles two buckets of trout a day. What I find funny however is the fact that once one goes in and grabs one, others will often mob it, even though there is a whole pile for the taking. I guess that's probably natural instinct but still funny. I hope we get to see this beauty again!! #8501605Robert K. Bemus April 01, 2010
Fantastic capture and very fine detail, Hal!! #8501704Dick W. Wyatt April 01, 2010
