Eagle and turtles

Yesterday was such a beautiful day and while we can't always choose the perfect "light" for our subjects, I was able to capture a few nice images.  This pair of eagles lives on my mom's property, they also have five tutles that I saw sitting on a log sunning themselves. There's so much cotton wood in the air right now, which on the surface of the pond, but the reflections of the turtles were still visible.

I don't often get a chance to shoot much nature and wildlife anymore, but it's where my roots are and where my passion for photography began... 

It was a perfect day!

The eagle shots are amazing. My father was fascinated by them and he'd love your picture of the eagle looking directly at you from the nest. Nice work.
