A moving target, circling around us. Not a great angle for me. However when you have Bald Eagles swirling and diving you ignore most everything else.


This particular Eagle made several turns and passes over the open marsh area. I did not catch any close dives to the surface though.


The sudden colder weather stunned some fish in the rice fields and marshes. Not a true fish kill, but enough to attract most every type of local predator.

I counted six different adult Eagles. They may have been more, and the dark juvenile Eagles were with the Vultures so I never even tried to count them.
