A couple of fun photo stops along the way. This time of year I usually take a bit of a roundabout way home, hoping to see something worth photographing. Today, Mother Nature obliged me. First, a solo eagle with a nice prairie dog dinner. Then, a beautiful pair that gave me some nice poses and a nice flyby from the male. I’ll take that!
