GBBGs vs Eagle3 - 2, maneuvering (Haliaeetus albicilla, ‎Larus marinus)

There was plenty of action to capture. I just kept clicking whenever I managed to get them in the frame and stay on track. Tracking was a bit complicated. Not only were they all over the place. The boat was rocking as well, and I had to be respectful of the other passengers. Still, quite a few decent action shots. I don't have to share them all before moving on to eagle 4. Just let me know when you get bored.

Determined that gull, isn't he LOL.

That really was a close encounter by the looks of it.

All three images in this series are brilliant, but this one is my favourite. Razor sharp, the gulls pink legs dangling, and full of drama. Very well done Ann.

It is hard to get bored with these type of action shots Doc. That gull is brazen or just does not realize how deadly this eagle can be. TFS!
