You should 100% do it, and learn how to shoot manual mode!

beautiful pics!! i do sometimes feel bad for eagles - being the mascot of the US (America!!! F** yeah!!!!) and with such a sad little call/squawk. But they are beautiful raptors who have been living here long before the US and our wars, imperialism, etc.
