canonloader Cream of the Crop  More info | May 07, 2009 12:03 | #2 The 747 of birds. Nice shots. They stop off here for a few weeks during fall migration, to tank up for the rest of the voyage. I never get over how big they are, like the pictures of the Spruce Goose trying to take off. I have seen them actually jump off the ice to snatch at an eagle when it came too close.
