I was on my way home from enjoying Thanksgiving Dinner with my 95 years young mother at the Nursing Home when I saw an eagle enjoying a meal on a deer carcass. It was next to the highway and I was going 65mph. Needless to say I couldn't react quite that fast. I turned around and when I returned it had flown and was perched in this tree. I waited for a long time for it to return, but it never did. In an attempt to salvage something from the sighting, I used the red shed and the dark web like trees to show off the eagle. I took some shots where I zoomed in, but it was still too far away to get much detail. Hence this composition.

I see him way up there Tick - the red barn does make him pop out a bit.

The white feathers are enough to draw one's eyes in that direction. Nice presentation Tick and a good narrative to go with it. 95 Years old! So nice of you to share Thanksgiving with your old mother.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
No matter how many times one sees an eagle, it is exciting.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.

I think you did a really nice job with this capture, Tick. It warmed my heart to read your narrative concerning your dinner with you mother. She is bless to have you as her son; as you are to have her in your life too.
If the eagle had known you better, he may have been more sociable.
