About

An adult bald eagle with a distinctive white head and dark brown body feathers stands inside a large green metal dumpster. The eagle is actively feeding on scraps nestled amongst several grey plastic trash bags that line the container. Overhead, a green mesh or grated lid restricts the open top, casting a patterned shadow across the scene. The natural daylight illuminates the stark textures of the bird's plumage and the crinkled plastic wrapping. This documentary wildlife photograph by Corey Arnold captures an urban scavenging moment.
