Here we go again.........Back at the river in the thick of the trees......Have been seeing the two younger eagles now for the last month.....This past Wednesday was the first day i have seen the adults......The river is frozen for the most part in this 5 mile stretch....The upper part is fairly open though....They have been hanging around that area more....

The two adults were sitting together on this tree....I had to drive up a bit to get a clear shot first though......As i got ready to click them together the one bolted.....This one decided to put on an air show i have never seen an eagle do before...In and around this tree for a bit...Then they both left......

Thanks all........

Here are some more from the following day.........The last one is from two days later farther down river where i actually seen 7 of them sitting there that morning....This road is a main drag and difficult to get off of and get pictures of them....Even on an early Sunday morning.....Rarely do i go here...All private property through here....Would be interesting if one could get down in and around the river though to get a bunch of them all hangin out together.........

First time also that i have seen the Eagles where i generally go actually have something they just caught and eat......A Squirrel....Even though parts of the river were not froze at this time.......It went up river a bit and decided there it would start eating it more....
