wow..not very original but,,,wow
thank you elena, that’s the only pose they seemed to show. 🙂
Magnificent birds! Oh, how I would have LOVE to have witnessed that with my 600mm lens!
that’s the max zoom i managed to get, at 250mm. i wish i have one like yours tracy!
nice of them to pose in such a coordinated fashion for you 😉
and worth money spent on the tour, although a tad short once the chicken skins were all snatched up. thanks graham.
Super timing on your part! Great photo!!!
thanks david. a win-win situation for both eagles and humans. 🙂
I’ve never seen or heard of these birds before, but they look really cool. I think I’ll find some more photos from different angles so I can try drawing them.
langkawi island in northern malaysia is named after the eagle, indonesia made them their capital jakarta’s official mascot. 🙂
Did you orchestrate this shot with the birds? Nice catch.
thanks george. the feeding tour was far too short than what was promised by the guide and only a few photos turned out ok (i think) and this is one of them. 🙂
Fabulous shot
thanks isobel!
Great picture!
thanks russel! 🙂
