Excellent capture!  I just learned that osprey fly with their catch (mostly fish) facing forward and upright.  Each and every time!  They know a lot more about aerodynamics than a lot of people!  Has nothing to do with eagles but I'm on pain meds for my jaw and I get a little weird on drugs.  heheheheh   :crazy:  What are you shooting with?

Thanks, gardnerlakegirl and gjtoth!

I use a Canon 7D camera and a 400mm f/5.6L lens.  ISO 400, Aperture f/7.1, Shutter 1/1250.  I have a writeup on birds in flight pictures in my blog.  http://www.buddy-woods.com/page10.html (http://www.buddy-woods.com/page10.html)

that was a great write up.  makes me want to pick up my camera and go find some birds to see what I can get at 1/4000.   and yes, I'm trying not to covet your 400mm lens ;)    Your website & blog are BOSS.   nice work!
