Bald eagles are a beautiful animal and i have always admired them.


It was cool when we took a cruise to Alaska. When we pulled in to Ketchican the eagles covered the shore line and jetty like the seaguls do here. it was amasing to see hundreds of them in one are like that.

Sorry...had to make a quick post and go work.
My dad's a volunteer for the Hudson River Preservation Society or something like that(read old hippy) and he is a kayak tour guide on the river. he got these pics on a tour.

Cool pic thanks for sharing. I agree, baldies are neat birds.
I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I'm not!
