Mess with the U.S., end up like the prairie dog

I got this shot a few weeks ago and have been holding onto it for today. This young eagle caught itself a meal and while perched on a fence post, I was able to maneuver to get the flag in the background in the same frame. I certainly would have preferred a full adult eagle and maybe without the prey, but it is still a cool shot of our national emblem and Old Glory.

Happy Veterans Day to all those who have proudly and valiantly served in the United States military. The nation is forever in your debt. Thank you for your service!
