Really!!! May I ask where? I was raised in Long Beach
and dont ever recall seeing a bald eagle there.

I would love to drive up and shoot some if they
are still around.

Thanks for sharing.

Ah haha. My bad.
Thanks for the clarification.

I had been teasing when I asked if he had taken
those in Long Beach. When he said yes I was shocked.

Red tailed hawks.. yes. Bald Eagles.. Not so much.
In Long Beach Ca. that is.
