Bald Eagle robbing seal

this action was quite distant but I saw the eagle swooping down towards the water and shot some images only realising after the event that the eagle had actually taken the fish from a feeding seal --

Bald Eagles

didn't really concentrate on these just took shots in passing -- a pair were in the trees at the back of the cottage garden daily and two imms came in one day presumably the pairs' last year's young -- another two pairs were within 500m of the garden --

a couple of shots of a common species -- more to process

if you live in an area like VIsland the opportunities for photographing Bald Eagles would be amazing -- hardly a difficult species to approach!
