This beautiful eagle posed for pictures this past March at Cherry Creek State Park, Colorado. Ready for a meal, it then launched itself into the air, showcasing its beautiful plumage and 6 foot wide wingspan.
It is always such a thrill for me to see these gorgeous creatures and even better when I can capture a good action shot of them as was the case this time. It has been more than a month since I last saw a Bald Eagle and I am going through withdrawals. 😉
To see more pics I have taken of these raptors, see here.
