My decision to walk a few miles on a dull, damp day was rewarded by a spectacular look at a Bald Eagle near the Big Pond. Because it was so dark, most of my pictures looked like this:
I was pleased to be able to coax some pictures out of the silhouettes.

The Bald Eagle is truly a regal bird.


He scans the fields, looking for lunch perhaps.


Nothing escapes his eagle eye.


I see you down there, lady-with-the-camera!


He didn't seem to mind me - I was right underneath him here.


In a tree by the big pond was this immature fellow.
He was much more skittery and didn't hang around very long.


Meanwhile, all the little birds were in a real flap!
'Fly away! Fly away!' warned the Red-winged blackbirds!
Nobody wants to be the King's Lunch!
