931A9306-Peekaboo Eagle
This was one of the funniest 'jack in the box' moments I've had in the field. Was coming down the river bank and heading toward this log to shoot back at a bird above me; when the two photogs further down the bank hollered at me to move in toward the bank because they had a bird behind the log. I couldn't see anything at all from my angle, but headed in, slowly. Stopping to scan through the VF every few feet. When I got about 80ft away or so, this head just POPPED out from behind the end of the log, where it was eating a fish carcass that'd washed up. Given where I was, I had to freeze and forego additional shots; but, those guys got some great ones, I think :) This is a happy runner-up prize for me, though :D
