White-tailed Sea Eagle

One of the highlights of our trip to The Lofoten Islands was the boat trip from Svolvær to Trollfjord with a chance of seeing Sea Eagles. We'd seen plenty of Gulls, who were fed along the way in the hope of attracting the attention of any nearby Eagles. We were on our way back from the fjord and had given up hope of seeing one, when out of the blue, this one arrived. He/she (?) was rewarded with a fish and the whole encounter was over in a moment or two. Fortunately I did manage to get a few decent shots and was glad of my new lens!
