Wayfarer’s on a Spring day

Looking from the west end of the “beach”, the location of the boat ramp, back towards Bigfork Bay (under the Bridge).

No snow, no ice, low water, beautiful day.

Handy to have a lake for a warm dog to get a drink.

I so missed my chance. This eagle was sitting quietly in a tree near where I was standing. I had been watching as I see a young eagle here fairly often and have a photo from last year: On Eagle’s Wings

I happened to look up. But I didn’t have my camera out. I tried for the in-flight but I was hurried. You can tell it is a Bald Eagle and it is in the process of maturing – more white than last year, though.

Gear down!
