Bird of prey!
Uploaded: September 25, 2010
This is one of those "lucky" captures. I saw the eagle approaching out of the corner of my eye. I barely had time to swing up the camera to capture this image. Other than cropping off the left side (empty space), this is full frame. In case you are wondering, the eagle is carrying a freshly killed mallard duck back to the nest for the eaglet to feed on.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
