Well, here we are class at the World Bird Sanctuary . Just a hop, skip and a jump from the zoo. The World Bird Sanctuary's mission is to preserve the earth's biological diversity and to secure the future of threatened bird species in their natural environments. They work to fulfill that mission through education, captive breeding, field studies and rehabilitation. Here we have of course: The Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus).

What a majestic capture this is Randy. One of the most beautiful birds in the world and the perfect capture of its essence.

After a bit of an absence, partly vacation but mostly tax season...busy for bookkeeping businesses... I'm glad to be back out here with at least 'some' regularity. I've missed everyone and am glad to have a little more time again.

More appealing avian artwork. Who doesn't love the bald eagle? Great capture, Randy.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Truly magnificent job, Randy. I'm trying to figure out why you shot this and the speedster the way that you did - composure-wise. Anywho....great capture.
