Just got back from walking the dogs. Walking down Westchester St.,

thought I saw a big bird in a

tree - a really big bird. Then I thought maybe it's a squirrel's nest.

As I got closer, it looked

more and more like a really big bird with a white head. Sure enough,

there was a bald eagle in an

oak behind one of the houses on the street. I stood there watching him

and flagging down cars to

take a view. They all had fancy cell phones with cameras.

Finally, a seagull flew by the eagle, and the eagle took off. Don't

know if it went after the

seagull or what, but it was a beautiful sight.

I've never seen one up here, although they're seen frequently further

south along the Potomac.

Hope you're day is spectacular!





We've had an unusual load of hawks and 'fish eagles' here this summer.

Probably taking advantage of the large rains and back waters from last

year. not to mention the small game that's in abundance.







That eagle should take advantage of the sea gull though.

Here's the eagle that was hanging around my sister's house in cape Breton.

The utility pole fed a detached garage a bit in from the road.

My brother-in-law would throw a frozen fish onto the field on occasion.

The eagle on Catalina Island will take a baitfish from the charter boat

captains hand.

I hope the captain is careful how he holds thee fish. i may be wrong, but i doubt if a talon is that discriminatory...
