The light hit this bird perfectly when I was taking this shot. A beam of sunlight through the branches

Re: Juvenile Bald Eagle close up
Nice shot I wonder how old the bird is and at what age the head turns white.

Re: Juvenile Bald Eagle close up
Very nice image. I'll leave the exact age of this bird to someone whom knows more while a juvinille he is likely older than one might think, I can say that it can take 8 yrs to go fully white.

Re: Juvenile Bald Eagle close up
Exceptional detail. Wow! An eagle lives to be 30 in the wild (give or take) and they should have white head and tail by age 5 years.....(again, give or take)

Re: Juvenile Bald Eagle close up
Great image... I took me about 60 years to go "fully white". However, by that time most of the "fully" had disappeared! Originally Posted by jeeperman

Unless I throw on a teleconverter.
Just to clarify, I use the Nikon 400mm 2.8VR. A prime non-zooming lens.

Re: Juvenile Bald Eagle close up
Thanks for your feedback everyone...trying to find that place on this forum where I can enter my real name? It has been suggested a few times but I am still looking. What a great place to look at pictures! I spent a few hours just browsing.
