Though this is not a very good picture, I have to show it to prove to you there were 4 eagles!!! Click it to make it bigger...you can easily see the two adults with their white heads...and the youngster that is farthest away is close to the adult and fairly easily seen. The youngster that is closer to us in the photo, is over my copyright.
All four flew up and headed towards the river however this one circled back to fly over the farmland surrounding us. It is the same eagle in both pictures.
I was so hoping to see an eagle today, but usually the days I start out hoping to see one, I don't. And I did not in my wildest dreams think I would see more than one. In my younger years, I never would have expected to see an eagle any place other than the zoo!Needless to say, seeing these made our day.

that is so neat, I guess they are making a comeback in the wild then?

And the best part is that you not only got to see them, but also made some very nice pictures of them. Amazing to see that many on the ground. Very strong flying pictures!
Oh Rose, how exciting for you and for us too. What a great capture of the one in flight. Isn't it funny to see Eagles on the ground. We always expect to see them only in the sky.
These are just great. And they do look best against a blue sky.

You were fortunate and you did a great job of capturing that bird in flight. We have some eagles here, but they seem to be few and far between. Such beautiful, graceful birds!
Wonderful, Rose. I don't think I have ever seen an eagle!
wow..you really hit the jackpot! Four! That is fantastic. Where were you for these photos?
How wonderful to be able to see four eagles in the wild. You had a great day when you spotted these.
