The two Bald Eagles were young adults, with white head, white tails, and a few white feathers here and there. I'd seen a Golden Eagle earlier this season—remarkable as it appeared very dark in color. Today's Golden Eagle was lighter, and no white markings could be seen.

As a follow-up to a great bird-watching afternoon while walking through our undeveloped woods, I spooked about a dozen crows—who departed all at once! Except for the sudden rushing sound of many beating wings, I wouldn't have noticed their presence.

What....no camera with you this time? You have thousands upon thousands of boating violations but can't get a picture of the Eagles for us.
