What kind of a camera are you using? Tripod? Telephoto? The pictures are breath taking.

A friend of mine who is a pilot told me the best days to fly airplanes are cold clear days. I surmise the eagle would have much the same opinion, but I'm neither a pilot or an eagle.

A Kodak DX7590, 5 mega pixels. Nothing fancy. We bought it last year because it has a 10x optical zoom. The pictures I post here are cropped a little and greatly reduced in size. The reasons the pictures turn out so well, most of them I am less than 100 feet from the eagle.

I don't use a tripod or spend time with all the adjustments on the camera. Just point, try to quit shaking from the cold then click.
