This is amazing, I know how hard it is to photograph birds in motion, you totally nailed this one!

I can easily see why you love them. Must be a blast to be able to photograph them!
If you throw a fish to it, will it ever grab it in the air, or wait til the fish hits the water?

He will wait until the fish is in the water, the trick is we put a piece of balsa wood in the fish so it doesn't sink
Then the Eagle see the fish and come to pick it up, they know the trick, they are very clever
I will post another image so you can see how the Eagle capture the fish...
