Right place, right time

[lizheaemma]

Not enough time, and no tripod...

We pulled into a parking lot near the river downtown as I wanted to try some,
big sky snowbank shots...

When I look to my right, and think no way, but grab my 55-200 just incase...
really what would the chances be of seeing 3 bald eagles downtown in the same tree!

So They are not as crisp as I would like, and the sun wasn't playing nice!
But all in all I felt really lucky!

But I really have to work on my trudging through an open field, and two feet of snow skills.

I like #4 the best - something about the angle of the eagle looking almost at the camera... Beautiful day and great shots!
