I was sittig here at my desk, and some movement caught my eye out the window. In swooped an Eagle and landed in a branch in a close by tree.

I'm so pleased he landed so near to you and you managed to get so many photographs. Maybe he'll stop by again and visit for a little longer next time. Very Happy

Fantastic. How amazing to get such a huge bird in your garden. Starlings sit and watch me, if they aren't squabbling. Smile

Around here we will get Bald Eagles to come down and try to pick up trout and other fish if we leave them too far away from us. Is quite the site to see an eagle try to steal your catch.

Great pictures, is hard to get them to stay long once they know you know they are there.
