Rausu Harbor patrol by mennodekker

Here is a shot from a low flying stellar sea eagle in the Harbor of Rausu Hokkaido Japan. I Liked the fact that is was flying so beautifully low, more gliding actually. Only I did not like the harbor in the back, so I blurred the background. We did not have great weather that morning but suddenly the sun began to shine so we had very nice light with great reflection on the snow.

Please click on it to see it on black!

Firm Landing by Harry-Eggens

When large birds like this Steller’s Sea Eagle, males up to 6 and females even up to 9 kilo in body weight, land into some fresh falling snow sometimes the snow is all over the place like you can see in this image.

Like always this shot is also taken in Nemuro Strait a few miles Northeast of Rausu on Hokkaido,
Japan.

Two of the same kind, but a lot of difference between them.

The Stellers Sea Eagle in front is covering its prey at which the one in the back has a fancy eye on it also.
