It has been months since I had a decent bald eagle outing. This past Sunday that finally changed. I spent an hour photographing this pair where they had each staked out spots on two separate osprey stands. No action but some nice poses. After that, they flew off to the west and landed in a tree about a quarter of a mile away.
I was spotting them with my camera when I finally paid attention to the entire scene. Behind them, the dominating 13,911 foot high Mount Meeker and behind it, the even taller 14,259 foot high Longs Peak. You can see the male bald eagle on the left, the female is on the right and is clearly raising a ruckus; I could hear her even as far away as I was.
A pretty cool scene overall and one that showcases Colorado and those gorgeous Rocky Mountains.
