Bald eagles are hard to miss, even when they’re soaring at a high altitude. Their size is a giveaway; their broad wings can span from 5-1/2 to 8 feet. This is one of my typical “I wish I had a really big lens” shots. You get to see it because it shows a dramatic size comparison between the eagle and a seagull.

Fabulous! What a soaring shot!
Now that is an impressive shot – even without a bigger lens. Eagles are so hard to capture while flying. – at least for me they are.
Been watching the Decorah (Iowa) Eagles web cam this March. 3 eggs… 2 hatched so far. Amazing how attentive mom and dad are. Check it out,
You’ve captured this one beautifully!
Not to worry about a big lens. You done good! And you’re lucky to get so close to eagles in the wild!
“Birds of a feather” certainly can have glaring differences.
Fantastic shot!
