Eagles: Another Pick Up (Pic 3)
So, here it is with talons set for the lift out... (Remember, you can get a closer look by clicking on the picture.)Eagles: Another Pick Up (Pic 2)
Actually there are a couple other pictures of this pick up, but to make the short version of a long story, I'm leaving some out.Here's the bird out at about 75 to 100 yards and 30 feet from its target.

Starting from the perch, this eagle spied a spent Kokanee Salmon and began its dive from a Ponderosa Pine high above the lake.Eagles: Lunch
Frank, click on this picture to zoom so you can see the fish a bit better. The hooked jaw with jagged teeth clearly show the classic symptoms of spawned out salmon, Kokanee, in this case.

I was positioned on the north shore looking south almost directly into the sun, so the pictures were not too good. But they speak for themselves.
