Eagles!

[Momto4FemaleFelines]

For the first time ever I saw Eagles in the wild right on our property!
I was outside trying to get pictures of a chickadee coming to my bird feeder when I heard this noise that at first I thought was a vehicle coming down the road with a really squeeky wheel. I realised the sound was coming from above me, looked up to see 2 large birds chasing each other.
Of course, I followed them and had my camera at the ready.
I didn't realise what I was photographing until I had a chance to view the pictures on the computer screen in full pixel size, as it was a cloudy day near dusk, the lighting wasn't great plus I was looking way up into the air through the camera lense.
I was thrilled when I realised what I had photographed.
The pictures aren't great but you can tell they are Eagles by the white heads and large, yellow beaks:

I'm never going to get anything done what with my endeavors to photograph deer, try to see the fox again, trying to sneak up on ducks in the creek and now looking for the Eagles again! I do hope I see them again.

How beautiful! It must have been a treat to see.
I have only seen one in the wild, but a little while back I got to meet one that was being rehabilitated at the vet clinic my sister works at.



It was amazing to be able to get so close to one. Even with it being a bit mangled, being in the presence of such a glorious creature was breathtaking.


Fingers crossed that you spot some more eagles! I would love to see more pictures when you do.
