2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Bald Eagle, Shevlin Park, Bend, Oregon, United States of America
The Eagle has Landed

Species: Bald Eagle | Location: Shevlin Park, Bend, Oregon, United States of America

I had heard there was an eagle that frequented a pond at a local park. When visiting the park there was one eagle perched on the top of a tree. I set up my camera and tripod and shortly thereafter its mate arrived and I was able to get a shot of it landing.
