I went out kayaking this weekend and remembered people speaking of a bald eagle nest on a island in the middle of the Ottawa. I kayaked out at 6:30 Saturday morning. As I rowed closer to the island I could see the eagle flying away. Undeterred I kept going and finally ended up with only 1 clear shot of this rather skittish bird. The Panasonic 100-300 is a great lens but while rollicking in a kayak, focus was difficult. Notice the fish in its talons. I could hear the eaglets but couldn’t see them or the nest through the lens. The others are flowers that I shot with the olympus 60mm, including an incomplete focus stack.
