Howard,

Nice eagle photos.  The second one with the reflection is particularly nice. 
 None here right now, as they have all (most of them) migrated up north.

Morning Luggers,
My hummingbird friends have taken a holiday from feeding on our fuchsias - 
perhaps the fact that I have put up a fake wasps' nest
may have driven them away. I will take it down and see if they return. I was 
at the Otter Bay ferry terminal the other day, taking the ferry to Swartz Bay
and the eagles were at the Stand next to the Terminal. They had just been 
fed by the Stand Owners and were happy and satisfied.
I didn't have my D800E and the 80 - 400 bazooka with me - just the Fuji XT 1 
and the 55 - 200 zoom so these pictures were taken with that
combination and processed and cropped in CS 6:

The sea was very calm and so I was able to capture this rather rare shot of 
the eagle flying and fully
reflected in the sea:

Please look large. C&C always welcome.

Howard
