Eagle juvenile

 

Two seconds.

That is all the time I had when I rounded a corner and startled a juvenile Bald Eagle (hatched this year). That is the time it took for the eagle from being in a hidden perch on my left, to flying in front of me, and then vanishing to my right. It was very close and didn’t all fit in the frame.

The first picture is a full-frame crop from the camera and is amazingly sharp. The second is a tighter crop of the head.

    Thank you for the close up view! Staring you right in the eyes! I was most amazed by the mouth of the eagle in the second photo.
