Looking out my bedroom window this morning I had to blink a couple times ~ is that really what I think it is? There was a beautiful bald eagle at the wooded edge of my property. The way it was moving told me it was stalking something. Wanted to grab a camera but didn't want to move away for fear it would fly away and I'd miss another moment.
Ran to get my iPad in my birthday suit as I'd just gotten out of the shower. Thought I'd be smart and zoom in on the eagle but all I got was a closeup of the screen on the porch.
It may only a speck in this photo but it was a larger than life event for me to see such a magnificent creature in real time vs. some screen. Shortly after this photo it flew into the woods and landed on a tree. So am wondering it lives in this area because just flying over my property with the canopy overhead, don't think the eagle would spot a squirrel moving on the ground despite its 'eagle eyes'.

That is just too cool!!! Maybe you will hear of a nest in your area and can get more glimpses of this magnificent creature of our great land.

I've never seen an eagle outside of a zoo or sanctuary. How cool for you.
ReplyDeleteWow that is amazing !!!! In your backyard !!!! Awesome !!! Hope you see it again !!!
ReplyDeleteHow cool you were able to spot our majestic bird. They are so awesome in person and I love seeing them in our river each Winter season when the ice comes in. Janice
ReplyDeleteThat is so awesome. I have always wanted to see a Bald Eagle in person. I am so glad you were able to get a picture of it.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sight! I miss seeing the eagles at the lake... We had some down here as well but with all the d@$# utv's (90% of which are city freaks coming out here to race down country roads), they are getting less frequent. I bet you'll be looking out your windows in anticipation of seeing it again for quite a while.
ReplyDeleteOh fun. They are fun to see. Hmmm, maybe you should make an eagle rug next 😉
ReplyDeleteWow! What an amazing sight. You are the second online acquaintance/friend who has posted a bald eagle in their yard recently and not at all in your area. I think it's a wonderful thing and too bad it didn't turn around to see you in your birthday suit. Ha
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!!!! We have them nesting on the lake here so we see them off and on.
