Missing LocationDescription
As an attraction, the local fishermen take photographers out to the sea ice where they throw thawing fish to attract the eagle (Steller's and white-tailed). And, attract they do... the eagles were out in large numbers!
The Steller's Sea-Eagle is known from its white-capped wings; they're stunning!
