Any chance you seen this guy at the causeway?

I came back from a weekend trip down to Sydney Mines and seen 6 eagles along the way. Best was 2 at the causeway on the ice eating fish about 100 feet from the main road. Go figure, the only weekend I don't bring my gear.

Killer shot.

Thanks folks. sf1 . . these were up Ball's Creek where you see the train bridge. There's a dead end road where the old road used to come out onto the highway years ago. There's usually some dead animal or leftover fish there and they frequent there all the time. Had 8 in the air one Sunday . . glorious day it was. Sydney Mines . . that's where I am !
