Beautiful, Roger.

Ya know, I've never seen an Eagle with my own eyes. Are these guys around all year? If so, I may need to plan some wildlife exploring time on my next trip up there.

Nope on all year. The arrive around October and then leave around April. Our Osprey Eagles arrive around the first of May and leave the end of September.

Thanks, Roger.

Guess I'll have to wait for the Rotary to be running before I'll get to see the eagles.

Fantastic pictures Roger. Looks like that one was cooperating posing for you, I've been amazed sometimes how long these birds will stand on a branch virtually still, just watching the world go by -- or looking for breakfast!
