The eagle has landed

No really... he has.

Something felt just "right" in the air today and I had a feeling I'd see a bald eagle - so I watched for one and lo and behold, there he was! Just sittin' there, soaking up the sun that wasn't. We did a U-turn, came back and parked along side the road.

He, however, was not cool with that so he took off...

and I panned, and took a bunch of blurry pictures.

He came to rest on a nearby tree surveying the river. I assume for trout or something.
Or a dead skunk.

Yeah I'm out.

  1. They are so beautiful! I like the last picture.......he's sitting there all fluffed up and makes me think you ruffled his feathers by taking his pic!
