Bald Eagle Soaring At Blackwater NWR

I am still going through my backup hard drives for images to post on the blog.  I think we will finally be able to go to some local parks tomorrow to get some recent images to post on the blog.  One in particular usually has Bluebirds this time of year. The images posted here are from a previous trip years ago to Blackwater NWR in Maryland. They were taken soon after we got there early in the morning as the sun was rising. To bad the Eagle was flying away from me, but I liked the colorful sky that helped make the images interesting.  All images were taken with a 400mm Canon DO lens with a 1.4x teleconverter on a 1D series body.

  1. I think that first image is wonderful – you can see feather detail, wing spread with pinions aloft and white head and tail. All have nice cloud colors.

    • Thanks Donna! I agree! They are my favorite birds to photograph. Yesterday we were taking a walk in our condo association and was surprised to see 2 Eagles flying high above us. We usually only see 1 here or there.
