    Thanks Van. We are lucky to have a road close to this dead tree where the eagles perch.

    Atta way Trish. clap.gifclap.gifclap.gif Its good to see that those eagles are still hanging around. I am a bit worried that both were away from their nest. It means that they haven't laid any eggs yet and its getting a bit late in the season.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    double eagles? that makes me think of part of demetri martin's comedy routine: double hawks. . .

    "if you want to make an imaginary animal, if you want to make a mystical creature... just take a regular animal and add wings to it..

    a horse becomes pegasus
    a lion becomes griffin

    and a hawk becomes...

    50013860-O.jpg

    a DOUBLE HAWK.

    demetri martin is the man

    (sorry for the off-topic post, i really like your picture trish!)
