I haven't seen our group of turkeys we had a few weeks ago, there have been mountain lion sightings so that may be why they are staying elsewhere. Either that or its getting close to thanksgiving

lmao... getting close to thanksgiving. You never cease to crack me up hehe.

OOOOOOOOOH... we ALSO were fortunate enough to have a bald eagle soaring over us at the football game. It was incredible. I have never been lucky enough to see one in the wild... let alone in glorious flight. It was beautiful.

I so wish I didnt have my cam packed on the one river trip I made this year. We came across a bald eagle feeding/guarding a salmon on a sandbar. Ive never seen a BE with that much attitude.

WOW... what a sight.

I wish I could have gotten a photo but the sun was at my back so it was hard to find him in the viewfinder on the cam because of the glare from behind and he was a good distance away. Luckily Aunt Mary had her binoculars. It's not an experience I will soon forget.

Those mountains are gorgeous! What a nice little trip. I miss PA mountains and Upstate NY. Used to go up there very often but we don't get around to it much anymore.

Thanks for bringing back memories

Looks like your little cutie had fun. I love Hannah, AND Beezer and Belle. Why do you get all the cute kids and fur kids?

they really are gorgeous aren't they... especially in the fall. no matter how often I see it... I never get tired of it. It's always just as beautiful as the first time I saw the mountains.

More then 15 years ago, while out on a company fishing trip, we had a bald eagle dive bomb the bait table on the charter boat we where on. Seeing a bird that big that close realy makes an impression.

They really are amazing! We have a nesting pair at out local park that me and my dad stalk LOL. The park has an eagle came and bulletin board for them in the enviormental center. They even have eagle tours lol, it's awesome. I've been on them before. One time the male was out hunting, and he landed in the parking lot we were in, It was awesome seeing him up close until some women slammed a car door.
