He really has a handle on the spot, that's for sure. Great stuff!

Great shot Bob. Especially like the background composition. We've still got another month before we see anything like that.

Thanks....I've been out there several times, but I got lucky this time.

Not my photo. Driver was unharmed (some cuts from the grass and fur in her mouth). I just found it incredible.

Wow, talk about having a bad night. Is that as common as our deer issues during the rut?

It is far too common. I am not sure how your deer issue is though.

years ago when fishing at the top of Cape York in Aus, place called Bamaga. Catching catfish after catfish, (about 4 of them), a White-Bellied Sea-Eagle was sitting in a tree watching me. Threw the dead fish back and crouched beside my ute. Set the camera on bust, (old Panasonic 6.5 Mp 4 frames per second), this was before they had all the whizzbangs like GPs and auto cloud send/capture, so for a 6.5 mp it actually took good pics.

Camera was stationary, (Hand held), focused on the dead fish in the water. Got 2 pics of the eagle just before and after she grabbed the fish.........Joined both the pics with a program i got with my cannon EOS 550D

I was a bit lucky with the burst, manual action and hit the shutter just as i saw her come into view. The first pic was her just in the frame and the second was just before she was out of the frame. Ist time the eagle came in for the fish she saw me, flew off and sat in the tree for a bit. This was the second time around

Here is another of the White-Bellied Sea-Eagle around Bamaga. Cloudy day but still quite bright...........About 7 or 8 Whistling Kites were cruising up and down the shore line looking for fish. I lay on my back and took a heap of pics looking for that good one.......A white-bellied Sea-Eagle came cruising up through the middle of them, Like a mac truck amongst a bunch of cars.......

Whistling Kite has a wingspan of 3 to 3 1/2ft........White-bellied Sea-Eagle is up to, 6 or 7ft

Crop'd and enhanced..........can see the interaction between the two birds......note how the sea-eagle has stretched out its wing. If those wing tip feathers hit the kite it would break its wing or damage its feathers

Wow. It's all about timing isn't it. Great sbots.

That is very cool stuff. I guess you get to see a lot of that kind of thing while out fishing.
