Bald Eagle Photos

My Favorite : It's absolutely amazing how Bald Eagle populations have rebounded. I'm now not surprised to see them anywhere in South Dakota, at any season. There are now several nests just within 5 miles of the Sioux Falls city limits. I still remember the first time I was able to photograph a Bald Eagle, not long after starting birding in 2000. I would have never guessed then how quickly the population would rebound, and how many photo opportunities I would have of the species over the years.
