This is not the best photo I have ever taken. But when you see one of these in Texas, you have to go with what you got. Image from today, 11-10-03. The eagle was about 600 yards away. -Kurt Horsley

Pretty good for 600 yards away and in flight! What gear did you use to get the image?

Thanks, Doug

Nice image Kurt. I am so excited to have the bald eagles back in Heber Valley. There is something majestic about these birds. I'm hoping to get some really good photos of them this winter.
Cheers,
Tyler

Wow, a Texas Bald Eagle. I'm jealous. I don't think I'll ever see one down here around Corpus Christi.
