Our national emblem soars

To say I was tickled about this capture would be an understatement. Every now and then things just come together to make a great shot. It was a very fun encounter with this “new” Bald Eagle and its mate last weekend.

I visited a spot along the South Platte River where I had long suspected there was a Bald Eagle nest and sure enough, there was. Access to this spot had been restricted but with a recent expansion of a trail, I now can get a good look. I believe this is the female of the pair that was hanging out at the site. She left for a while but when she returned, she proceeded to give me many great flybys including this one.
