CaptainT16 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Awesome Pic. Have seen quite a few around KS this year as well, but not any close enough to get a nice pic like this one.

Danoinark Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Nice Phil, were you using a long lens or just zoom to capture that? How far away were you? Dano Glass Has Class "from the laid back lane in the Arkansas Ozarks"
Members PowersiteProwler Posted March 2, 2006 Members Posted March 2, 2006 That is a beautiful picture! It's amazing how the eagle population has really taken off in the Branson/Tri-Lakes area, and really in the entire Ozarks. I have some realtives that have a home off of the Long Creek branch on Table Rock, and we see several when visiting them. It hasn't been that many years ago and a photo like this would have been almost impossible to have captured!
Danoinark Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 We saw a couple in trees on our way out 86 toward RR the other day...Too far from the roadway for a picture though...Dano Glass Has Class "from the laid back lane in the Arkansas Ozarks"
Randall Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 beautiful birds... its only been a couple years ago that i saw my first one in missouri. nice that they're making a comeback. Cute animals taste better.
Brian K. Shaffer Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 That's a great shot! Where was it taken at exactly ? I have taken many pictures of eagles.. but none that you can see detail that close. Look at those feet - look at the angle / pose she struck... 'tis breathtaking - Brian Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted March 3, 2006 Author Root Admin Posted March 3, 2006 This pic was sent to me by Rolan Duffield. I assume he took it. Rolan?
Rolan Duffield Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Took this picture in October, 2005 near the Cooper Creek area. I used a 10X zoom lens and I was at least 50 yards from the tree. I assume the Bald Eagle has a nest close by. Lots of chances for good wildlife pictures in the Taneycomo area. Lets see yours. Rolan D.
