Oh.

Wow.

Excellent.

On many levels.

Pleased for me to get to enjoy it and pleased for you and all the others who put in the hours and effort and deal with the early and late times and the cold and the often challenging conditions and logistics to capture such an image.

And put up with some variation of "that camera takes great pictures" or "well, no wonder with that rig".

Nice work.

Thank you for sharing.

Wow! Great shot and wonderful job capturing it.
 
Nikon Z50ii? Lovely.
 
Magnificent shot. Well caught.
 
Is this heavily cropped? Or how did you get so close to get this tight with 500mm on FF sensor?
 
The phrase, "Nailed it!" comes to mind when viewing this picture. It is simply superb, the detail is stunning.

I was on a boat I did a YT video about the experience …eagles about half way through👍

 
That's a stunner, way to go! May as well go to ISO 500 (dual gain kicks in). May I ask which AF point you used along with bird tracking? Great result!

Thank you. I was on Auto iso so it chose that low number. I was using Auto AF I believe along with BT
