Bald eagles play in the skies over suburbia

The further we get into winter, the easier it is to find bald eagles. Indeed, sometimes you find them when you don’t even expect to. Such was the case a couple weekends ago as I returned home from my photo excursion and spotted some curious dark spots in some trees at a local open space. My friend and I went to investigate and sure enough, three bald eagles were hanging out. The youngest one (about 2 years old) almost immediately took flight, chasing off the oldest (4 years old) of the group. The two then began a fantastic aerial display, flying around together, sometimes seemingly in sync with their movements. They circled a few times, allowing us to enjoy their playtime, then headed off to parts unknown. Have a fantastic weekend!
