Full disclosure: Right after I finished setting up, I turned to chat
with another photographer who had just arrived. I turned back to the
river just in time to see a mature eagle swoop over the water, catch a
fish, and fly away just 50 yards in front of me... I had high hopes for
more activity but, sadly, that was the show for the day.

Christian,
A good effort. Next time you've got to pay the eagles a sitting fee
to get them to cooperate.
I'm about 2.5-3 hours away from the eagles at the Mississippi locks at
Rock Island.
Pickings were slim (distant) there, but better above the Alcoa Plant
on the Iowa side.
Being no dummies, the eagles hung out around the fish hatchery.
I've got to go back and get some shots.
Regards, Bob S.

Hi all;
It's been a long time since I've posted a PESO or GESO. I've been crazy
busy with traveling for my new job, going to exciting places like, Miami,
New York City, Chicago, Paris and Frankfurt.
Because of that, my time for photography has suffered except for the
occasional tourist snaps. Also, my time on the PDML has been infrequent and
I apologize for not commenting on the many beautiful PESOs, GESOs and PAWs
I've seen in the past few months.
The weekend before Thanksgiving I decided to remedy all that by going to
Conowingo Dam in Maryland to photograph Bald Eagles. I've put my thoughts
about the trip along with some photos on my blog. Not my best work but
enjoy it nonetheless.
