Here’s another Bald Eagle image from way back in 2005. I remember just how cold and windy it was on the Homer Spit that day; everyone else was hiding inside the hotel, and by noon the police had closed the spit because the waves at high tide were washing over the road and leaving boulders it their wake. I was out before dawn and found this Eagle on a sheltered perch behind a huge and ugly oil or gas tank (the kind you would expect to see at a refinery). It didn’t look like there would be much light, but I knew this was the best opportunity, and decided to stick with it. I made several images during the brief predawn storm light that morning; this one is a favorite.
I have one opening on my March 5-9, 2020 Eagles Galore trip due to cancellation. Learn more HERE.
