Default Eagle

Down at the beach today and spotted this guy up in the tree getting blown around by the wind

I am not sure why the first posting was corrupted.

These would be very nice but they are corrupted. You should try photobucket or flickr...

Brilliant capture, I like the composition. Eagles are such magnificent birds and you have captured this one really well.

Thank you very much. I got a shot of him taking off from the tree with his wings all spread out too but it wasn't quite focused
