What day was the photo taken?

Photo Description
I was walking along the Potomac River near Alexandria Virginia and saw 3 Bald Eagles. It was fascinating watching these Eagles soar out over the water looking for food and then back into a tree. One of them returned with some food and spent about 15 minutes eating it in the tree. This is a photo of one of the Eagles as it left the tree and headed back toward the water.
Tips and Tricks
- It's tricky trying to capture birds like this. I was using a Rebel XS with an F4 200mm zoom. I took a lot of shots just to get a few that were in focus. It is fun to play around with this type of photography, but if you ever want to do it seriously, I recommend a longer and faster lens.
