I found this bird along a side road I take for twenty plus yeas on a regular basis and never saw one there. Might be a late migrant.

A beautiful, detailed and well exposed image. Great choice of vertical format.

Woh! What a super detailed image, very impressive shooting from below and the sky so dark.

Beautiful regal pose-wonderful shot! Bald Eagles are becoming common here after years classified as endangered. There are several ongoing nests here. I wonder if you are also experiencing an increase in population.
