Strong!

Not the greatest picture. It was just before sunrise, I had my ISO set to something crazy like 800, and this beautiful eagle took me by surprise as it floated over the lake where I was waiting for the sun to come up. We don't usually see eagles around my neck of the woods. This strong, silent bird flew a lazy circle and then took off to probably find some breakfast. I took three shots, and after some Photoshopping, managed to almost salvage this one.

  4. It is such a thrill to see an eagle, happily you ought to see more as the populations are really rebounding all over.
