I realize there's nothing spectacular about these shots, but I was driving down the street & saw this bird on a phone pole. Just thought I would share the view.

Thats why I carry my camera with me all the time, you never know when you might get the magic shot.

You will not be judged as a photographer by the pictures you take, but by the pictures you show.

Every time I see an eagle - I keep looking for a repeat visit for months... They steal my breath away.

Thank you all.

I hope the next time I chance upon one, it will be in a better situation for photos.
