    A little afternoon action.

    Believe it or not, I've actually had my fill of bald eagles, for awhile. Their flyway must have changed, because I seem to find them all over lately. In the past, I'd get excited if I saw just one, this time of the year.











    Not a very attractive background for this pheasant.



    A sun dog at 40 degrees. I've never seen one at this warm of a temp. I took this from a moving car.

    Apparently, you're taking full advantage of the opportunity, and with success

    Looks like you're having fun Mike. I wish I could find some cooperative eagles like that around here.

    Nicely done Mike. That 1st shot is awesome.
    As for seeing more, maybe banning DDT and other pesticides is finely paying off.
