Not the first time you've shared a great eagle shot. Looking forward to their next visit, and your next set of photos.

I've actually been struggling to get a good (sharp) bird in flight shot myself but I think I need to fine adjust my lens and bump up the shutter speed a good deal. Still new to that.
