Jennifer Murphy's photos with the keyword: bald eagle

I was killing time waiting for my laundry to be done, and took the dog down to the river nearby. I was looking around for something interesting to photograph when I spotted a bunch of birds roosting in a dead tree nearby. Shot some photos and was surprised to discover the birds were pigeons; not something you expect to see in the wild...maybe the wilds of downtown Boston or New York, but not here. I was even more surprised while I was shooting to have this eagle swoop into frame, flush the pigeons off their roosts, and fly off.

I've been seeing this eagle for a few days now, but he's hanging in a spot I can't get close to. GRRRRR. Also, I think that might be a cat he's eating. Ewww.

Epic raptor battle, huzzah!

The osprey were joined by a bald eagle - the second I've ever seen in the wild!
