A month ago our son left for a walk but returned to say there were a pair of Bald Eagles in a Norfolk Pine. We had seen him on top of another Norfolk Pine a couple of weeks prior to this sighting. Norfolk Pines are the tallest perches in our neighborhood in southwest Florida and this majestic bird seems to think they are for him alone. Seems like a very special Christmas tree topper.
I’m participating in Becky’s April Squares.
So prestige and to get them both in one shot! Wow!

It was pure luck, Cee. The only skill was the weird position I had to take to use our car as a stabilizer. 🙂

Doesn’t he, or is it she, look handsome. They are such amazing birds. I have flown a male, not the female as they are too heavy, but even the male was a huge weight when he landed on my arm!

Interesting. I think of birds being light but they do have a lot of muscle. Do they have a predator? When he was in the other Norfolk Pine he was warding off one of the other birds of prey in our area – but it wasn’t a fight. He just gave a few warnings.

Thank, I don’t have a long lens and didn’t want to take time to get my tripod so I was pleased. Not as sharp as it could be but still shows their grandness. Missing you guys.

Hmm…maybe they’re just watching over you during these hard times…or just keeping an eye out for lunch. 🙂

I think it is lunch. We have a few ducks I wish he would carry off.
