National American Bald Eagle Day



 In honor of  National American Bald Eagle Day, here are some photos of our national bird.   All these photos, except for a couple,  were taken within two miles of my home.



Four sub-adult eagles on a single branch.


Juvenile eagle on a tussock















This one looks like a fledgling




Too far away and highly cropped, but I still like the look.


Bronzed eagle with frost.


Note the eagle's breath.




Eagle in winter,




These eagles were bathing in a marsh near Portage.


Facing off over a slmon scrap.



Fighting for the salmon.
