This juvenile Bald Eagle, around 3–4 years old, this eagle hunts in the golden light at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge in Church Creek, Maryland. Its head still shows brown speckling, a sign it has yet to fully mature into the iconic white-headed adult. Captured with my Canon R6 and Sigma 150-600mm lens, this moment highlights the power and grace of one of nature’s greatest avian hunters.
