Bald Eagle in Flight

Bald Eagle in Flight (Haliaeetus leucocephalus)

Took several trips to the mountains to photogragh eagles hunting the Kokanee Salmon while they spawn. Had a great time however I really didn't come home with the type of image I was after. When I began scouting the area prior to the Salmon run I saw several eagles on the ground in thick brush sitting along the stream waiting for the run to start. Was unable to acsess that area later when the fish were in the streams, quite dissappointed for I had visions of my self all camouflaged surrounded by eagles.
