bald eagles of Jordan Lake
Taggoing for another fish
Petruchio, the male, is leaving the nest after having dropped off a fish for his mate Kate. She finished the fish in less than 2 minutes.
incubation
For those of you new to my Journey, I watch a nest of bald eagles on Jordan Lake every year. I try hard to get the best photos I can at the long distances needed to not disturb the parents. I call the eagle pair Kate and Petruchio. They are starting their 4th year of raising eaglets. In this photo Kate has begun brooding / incubating her egg(s)! All you can see of her is the upper half of her head, beak facing to the right, bright eye on alert. I watched Petruchio, her mate, bring her a fish yesterday but it was too dark to get a photo.
to soar
I ached to grow wings and join these two immature bald eagles as they played in the heavens above me.

punk rocker
3 year old bald eagles always remind me of punk rock stars – rebellious in their changing colors, especially in their beaks, heads and tails
