Day 25

Tuesday, January 24, 2012

An immature Golden Eagle, I think.  There were two, and the immatures of the Golden and Bald are very close.  This one is acquiring a golden set of feathers on it’s back and the head doesn’t project as far as the tail does. (1/1500, f8, 400mm, ISO 400, -1/2 stop) (1/1500, f8, 400mm, ISO 400, […]
