On this shot the eagle is wiping its head on its wing feathers. I thought that was interesting.



This next eagle was perched on a limb looking over the river.

In this shot it is giving me the buss off look.



The eagle in this next group of photos is one that perched in this tree near the river foe over an hour. When I saw all the people and their cameras I knew there was a beautiful eagle. It sat there and posed for all of us with no concern shown at all.

Across the river from where this eagle was perched is a Gambling River Boat that is painted in very bright colors, the reflection of the colors on the river caught my eye.


This photo is looking out on the river I notice two eagles on a fallen tree.


This eagle was trying to hide in the branches of the tree.

this photos shows how open the water is now and most of the ice is gone.


This is a juvenile perched in a tree near a slough area. Also near this tree is a large eagles nest and the pair that the nest belongs to were sitting by the nest. When I had driven by earlier on the way down the River Road, the eagles were in the nest moving branches around.

The juvenile only allowed me a few photos and then flew off and soared over the tree with the nest and adults perched. The adults did look up and watched the juvenile soaring.




It was a great way to spend the morning before going to work for the evening.

Beautiful pictures Linda. I love the ones where they look at you. You caught one in a blink too.
Pretty reflections from the riverboat. It looked like a wonderful day to be out and about.
