White Tailed Eagle, Skye

[Mickg]

Hi all just back from Skye.

Second visit, love the place but less keen on the 10 hour drive.

Took a boat trip from Portree to see the eagles where the skipper throws out a fish for them- cheating perhaps but it was quite exciting!

Excellent shots Mick, especially numbers 3 and 4. I am just a little bit envious.

Impressive captures, quite reminiscent of the shots Jon Pear posted a while ago. Must try and get to Skye sometime myself. Even if I couldn't get shots like these there is always the liquid compensation in Talisker bay

Super considering the lens and from a boat well done.

You lucky devil, Mick.

BTW - From Barnsley you are almost half way there!

Magnifiscent creature well captured. I wonder what the gull was thinking in the 1st one

The third one in particular is excellent, sharp and with eye contact.
