The Eagle has landed

In Kodiak today and was told there were lots of eagles to be seen. We only saw one and I had the opportunity to use my camera.
Three good things:
1. Saw only stuffed bears!
2. Great museums in this little frontier town telling tales of the hardy folk who settled here so many years ago!
3. 15degC temps here which was so unusual for this time of year! Didn't use my feather coat at any time!

Such a classic pose!

[Lesley Chisholm]

You only need one! We're having really warm temps here for this time of year too. If you're crusing into Vancouver, you might be going right passed Kim's house!! @kwind

[Allison Williams]

Great shot. He looks very stern.

He looks very regal, must have been exciting to see this large bird so closely. Fancy emigrating to that rather remote place!

@happypat They must have had some incentive - like free land, Pat! Storms, ice, extreme cold etc!

[Maggiemae]

@judithdeacon thanks Judith - they all look the same - regal and proud and with tremendous air power!

So jealous. I have lived in the US all my life and have never seen one> What an elegant pose he gave you for this magnificent picture.

[Islandgirl]

Very regal looking, great find!

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn I thought i was lucky too but apparently there are so many of them up here that if you don't see one, you must be inside your room all day!
