Mallard Duck

Just a simple photo of a duck I took today.  Was out on the river and just shooting some general pics. Not a ton of wildlife was close but the ducks almost always oblige.

Happy 4th of July

Here's another photo of the Bald Eagle eating a northern pike on top of a stump pile / muskrat house. Seemed like a fitting photo for today. Happy 4th of July!

Great Blue Heron

This Great Blue Heron was hanging out in the wild rice and let me get fairly close for a couple of photos. After a couple of shots we continued down the river. These are fun birds to photograph and are fairly abundant in the Wisconsin River flowage. More Heron and Eagle photos coming in the next few days.

Fish Lunch

Got pretty close to this eagle today. He was eating a good size northern on top of a muskrat house. I used my 100-400 lens and took a bunch of snaps for about five minutes before leaving him be with this lunch.
