Bald Eagles

November 1, 2005

Picture of a Bald EagleOne of the things I enjoy is see­ing bald eagles in Florida. I only see them on occa­sion so it is always a treat when I see one.

This morn­ing I had my cam­era so I stopped on my way to work to try to get a pic­ture. I saw at least 5 eagles. There were sev­eral young ones that did not have white feath­ers yet. I spot­ted 2 adults sit­ting on the ground across the lake so I decided to walk over to try to cap­ture them with my lens.

I was dis­ap­pointed because as I got close to where I was going to stop for the pic­ture, they took off. So I did not get a pic­ture but I did get wet shoes because of the morn­ing dew. I did get one pic­ture of one in the air. It is not as good as I would like but a start.

    I took this pic­ture in the Vista Lakes area off of Lee Vista Road. It is at the small lake close to the “light­house foun­tain” just east of Odyessy Mid­dle School.
