across the river

It was a treat to watch the eagles fishing in the Des Moines River. The one higher up had a small fish in its feet. Times like this I wish I had a big zoom lens!

Those two bald eagles stand out so nicely against the tangle of branches.

[Debra]

Oh what a wonderful capturel. I just realized your'e from Iowa...Is this taken across the Mississippi or another smaller river?

@dridsdale Along the Des Moines River close to where I live. I just happened to check out the river that day on my way to go shopping. There were gulls and eagles, but I don't have the equipment for good shots. It was a treat to watch them though.
