I too have seen a swimming eagle. It breast stroked a long way across a lake and ultimately got out on a distant snag. I was told by a local naturalist (in PA) that eagles do that when they catch a fish that is too heavy to lift out of the water.

A friend sent me this link of an eagle doing a breast stroke - to those more knowledgable birders, can it be for real?
