I went on a camera safari today and bagged a couple eagles.

I've see quite a few bald eagles up your way when I head up there. Many times when they come across road kill. Couple times there'd be Ravens harassing the one eagle trying to run him off.

This bald eagle was eating a roadkill. The female was there too but was ran off by a magpie.

There is strength in numbers in the bird world. The Blue Jays around here don't want any owls in my neighborhood. You can guess there's an owl someplace around when you hear all the Blue Jays up in noisy ruckus.

Great pics. I see them frequently. When I was just a tadpole, you NEVER saw an eagle. They were something that was all the way up in Alaska.

Enjoying your pictures. The mill where I worked had a forty acre log pond full of fish. Eagles and Osprey would fish there quite often. It was fun to watch them but no time for a camera. When the mill shut down and all the logs were removed, the fish didn't have any cover, and the cormorants came over from the coast by the dozens, and the fish didn't stand a chance, those birds pretty much cleaned out all the fish, hence no other birds fishing. Now it's been drained, so I have the time, but nothing is there now.

How odd it is the things that come and go in a lifetime. I drive by so many places and say to myself there once was a whatever? there for a very long time and now it's gone.

Nice pics. I am so awe struck every time I see them.
