So, it's a little surprising to hear about a summer eagle.

A conversation between two eagles could maybe go like this; "well yes, we just love the winters here on Winnipesaukee, but as soon as those Canada geese start to show up in April.....arriving from down south ..... don't you know ..... we are so outa here ..... and we prefer to summer up in Labrador than to share the lake with all those geese!"

You understand that a Canada goose usually weighs more than an eagle which weighs from three to five pounds, but without the eagle weapons; talons and beak. While the eagle are more like flghter airplanes....the geese are like bomber planes.

I see eagles all the time in the summer. I saw them this summer up at Long Lake in Maine, and see them around the Merrimack River quite often.
