I really like the shots of it flying. They are really sharp and the DOF is great also.

I think 2nd and third are the best of the set. I like the 2nd best - the diagonal framing gives a really dynamic image.

Beautiful photos! Great flight captures - nice and sharp. I'd love to shoot some of these beautiful birds one day!

We were fortunate that the Haines birds were raising two eaglets and were
fairly active our second day there - if you look closely at #4 that bird is bringing
a small fish back to the nest. The Seward bird had nested at a small lake near the
center of town and didn't fly as much.

I tried this at a local reserve and there is a nest that the reserve set up. As I went close to the nest I was warned buy the caretaker to stay away or the eagles will move the nest. I waited and never even got to see such a great site that you managed to capture. This is harder than hunting,You are a true hunter. Great photos!
