12.31.17 Busy Eagles at the nest

Not much time for me at Honey Bee but the Eagles were busy. Guess New Year's Eve is just another day!

Tails!

Hello.......

December 1. Canada Goose for lunch

I spotted this Bald Eagle in a tree as I was about to leave the Honey Bee area.

I soon realized why it was there; a dead Canada Goose lay close to the road. As I watched the eagle, it suddenly went down to feed on the goose. The proximity of the goose and eagle to the busy road made me very nervous.

I spent about 45 minutes watching the eagle feed, back off, fly a tad, feed again, etc.  I realized it was a special opportunity. I also had been hoping for some shots with Fall colors and eventually this Eagle moved into a great position for that.

The Eagle left for good at that point. I walked across the street and moved what remained of the dead goose further onto the golf course property.
