Juvenile bald eagle at Bombay Hook wildlife santuary in Delaware.
This was the first time I had ever seen an immature bald eagle so I was pretty excited to get this shot. The background wasn’t all that interesting so I added a little texture to spice things up.
Photographed with Canon 1Ds Mark III, 500 mm telephoto lens
