Bald Eagle Snatching Fish Near Chengdu River

by Clifford Fowler

Golden afternoon light cuts through thin mountain fog over a rushing river near Chengdu. A bald eagle plunges from above, talons extended, gripping a silver fish mid-surface. The bird's white head contrasts sharply against the gray water and autumn-brown riverbank vegetation. From a low ground perspective, the eagle's powerful wings span wide, feathers catching the dry air. Ripples explode outward where the bird breaks the water's surface. The fish flashes silver before being secured. Autumn leaves cling to nearby branches, hinting at the season's peak. The eagle's yellow beak opens slightly, gripping the catch firmly. Water droplets freeze in the air around the talons.
