This youngster had a fish in his right foot and was headed to the safety of the trees to eat it, when a second fish caught his eye. I don’t often see eagles or ospreys go after a second fish while they are already carrying the weight of a first fish. Not to mention the dexterity needed to hold on to one fish while grabbing a second one from the water. This youngster managed to keep both fish and made it into the trees. Pretty neat fishing!

Great capture (meaning you)! Would you share what camera and lens you used?

I apologize for the delay in answering your question!
I use Canon equipment. Two different Canon bodies: 5D Mark IV and 1Dx. The lens is Canon 100-400 mm IS with a Canon 1.4 extender.
Hope that helps.
