Wow, Dianne, happy homecoming! How awesome.
Thanks, Linda! For all we know the eagle could be there at other times, but we just don't look. It was just luck that we saw it this morning.

We were coming home from the store and noticed this guy in a tree near our front yard. It is a dreary day, but I ran in and got the camera and got a couple of shots before he flew away.

It's a great feeling isn't it. To get a picture of an eagle. I've been there done that!

Lucky you.
I attract birds with my feeders so I can stay home and photograph them. I get a few hawks every so often. And squirrels.
Oh, any of the neighborhood cats missing?

Thanks, robertjerl! We have feeders too, and that attracts hawks also looking for lunch. We're across the street from water, and I've seen eagles hunting over the water, but too far out to get a good shot. I think this one was just taking a break in this tree.
