I made this guy pretty nervous when I first stopped and he considered taking flight, but then he settled back down. Is he awesome looking or what? Such a magnificent bird.

I had to laugh at myself while taking these photos because back in November my husband and I were trying to decide what kind of new car to get. He wanted certain features and I wanted others. I had never had a sun roof before so I told him I thought one would be kind of fun. He wanted to know what in the world I would ever need something like that for. Well, now I have the answer! I parked right to the side of this bald eagle, popped the roof open, and shot away! Gotta love those little extras! Now I am off to Salt Lake City to a convention for three days so no posts until I get back. Don't want to take my Nikon to the big city so think I will opt for the p & s. Have a great weekend!
