Jordan Lake, Haw River: Bald Eagle! Fishing in the riprap! This is Notch the Bald Eagle. I haven’t seen this almost 5-year-old eagle since January when she still had a few dark feathers in her tail. There are still one or two on her face. I sure hope she finds a mate this fall. Wow! It has been a long time since I got to photograph a fishing bald eagle. Oh, my.
Really wonderful photos. You got the exposure just right and didn’t blow out the highlights given the dark background.
Thanks!
