Description
This bald eagle adult is captured at the moment it deploys its wings for launching from the evergreen branches where it is perched. I watched this bird in Juneau, Alaska hop among these branches for ten minutes before it eventually took flight. I had made it to a craggy perch high above the Gastineau Channel and found myself at eye level with this eagle when I reached the top.
