This was the craziest thing I've ever seen. Two young Bald Eagles were just flying away from me when all of a sudden they flew close together and then started an epic battle in the air. One was actually upside-down and at one point their claws appeared to be locked.
It was like the Olympics slogan...the Joy of Winning because I got to witness this event, followed by the Agony of Defeat when I opened the images in Lightroom and confirmed all my fears...no real useable images but I'm posting one anyway just to document it happened!
I would have gladly traded one of my kidneys on the spot for an 800mm lens!!! :)
Lucky you to witness and capture such a rare and amazing battle of two eagles. You being in the right place at the right time and quick with the camera created this image you will always remember. Outstanding capture!
