Immature Bald Eagle


Immature Bald Eagle

The family & I went up north to visit my in-laws this past weekend in Iron Bridge. During our visit I met a fellow Flickr addict, Sue, or better known as nature_photonutt. We had some great photo/camping conversations over coffee & tea.
Over the weekend I had a couple of very brief opportunities to photograph Bald Eagles feeding on salmon on the Mississagi River. My canoe was left up there from a previous visit & I took advantage of it. Working against the wind, rain & heavy current made it a real challenge to sneak up on these wary birds of prey - they seem to spook really easy from the water, especially the Mature Bald Eagles.
