Bald Eagle

Bald Eagle

 

The bald eagle has many fans

Both the old and the new

A little crowd in the stands

Watches his every move

 

We look at him with spotting scopes

And give our oohs and aahs

He preens as he spends his day

In his nest big and tall

 

Each prefers a lake or river

That is plentiful with fish

Talons catch a scaly dinner

That he feeds to his little chicks

 

The mighty thermals help lift him up

With his colors showing there

There’s no mistaking his identity

He is beautiful beyond compare

 

He returns to perch in his nest

For all of us to see

There he passes the numbers test

with his little family

      Glorious bird. One of my friends here in the UK is an amateur wildlife photographer and he and his wife had a holiday in Florida a few years ago, Not for him the beaches or Disney World, they went round the rubbish dumps photographing bald eagles!
      Good write.

        Thanks Goldfinch. Other than a zoo experience several years ago, all my experiences with the the bald eagle have been special. He really is a most handsome bird!
