Artist's Comments

This golden eagle has been one of my favorite subjects. I just love the beak and eyes, and the little feathers. Hope you enjoy her as much as I do. She may be only about 9 lbs, but she still made me nervous. :D

I had a chance to get up close and personal with one at a renfair once. A local raptor rescue group was doing a show on falconry and they had brought an injured bird they were rehabilitating to release back into the wild. They are so majestic and beautiful!

The camera doesn't make a bit of difference. All of them can record what you are seeing. But, you have to SEE.

:D Yes, completely agree, just beautiful birds. I love bird of prey like this, they are so amazing to see up close. :)

Gorgeous shot, the bird is really elegant. :wow:
Did you use zoom, or how have you managed to get this close?

It was on a handlers arm, so I was close, but yes, zoomed in a bit for it as well. :) Thanks so much.
