Last night just before we were getting ready to eat our dinner, Deb saw an Eagle swoop down and grab something out of the water. By the time Deb and I got out of the house with the camera, the eagle was sitting on the beach getting pestered by some crows and seagulls. After a minute of that it took off back to its nest, giving me a great shot at some pictures. Click the pictures to view larger, we were pretty close to him, so they blow up pretty nicely. In the first two pictures the eagle has its catch in its talons, and then it takes off with it.
We thought he got a young sea otter, but we aren't quite sure what it is that he was able to catch.
Oh, definitely not a fish. So cool, and icky all at the same time. ;o)
