This Bald Eagle watched as others are feeding off a fish carcass on the shore. Possibly she was the eagle that brought the fish in as she is drying her wings.

this is outstanding. the posture and concentration of the eagle show the immense power of these birds of prey. If one could only read its mind as it definitely is considering something

You got a great angle on this unique shot and I love the pose you caught her in as she waits for her feathers to dry. An interesting and excellent capture, Harold!

Agree with Debra, nice clean compo with strong colors. Good that we can see the long feathers of the wingtips. Always amaze that those big birds often chose to sit on the tiny last branch on the top of a tree.

Relaxed pose, however very focused look. Maybe ready to fly-in if need be. I like the clean composition Harold, nice one.
