It's what your left arm's for!

Liberty and her handler. My resolution to post only 2 instead of 4 pics a day has lasted all of 3 days. Anyway, I thought you might like to see this: Liberty, the Alaskan bald eagle, looking nonchalant!!
What a bird, incredible to see up close .Don't know how you post 4 shots a day, posting one is a full time job.

Seeing the eagle on the arm gives an idea of his size. Wonderful shot

Great capture -- I once knew a man who had the same "Crazy eagle" look. It's more becoming on the eagle.

Nice to see the size of the bird. And a nice capture of this cute laughing owner

Is the handler by chance named David as this bird is Goliath ! What a powerful & aloof bird. The gloved hand clutching the rope adds interest. Liberty, must weigh a flock ! :)

That's a wonderful shot for showing perspective to appreciate the size of the eagle. Those are some serious talons!

Stunning picture.

Wow, terrific capture! It really puts into perspective just how big these birds are.

Beautiful eagle she is huge marvellous shot

Fantastic! Had no idea how huge they are. Wouldn't want her angry at me and that's a fact!

The size of an eagle always astounds me when I see an up close picture like this. Amazing!

I'm trying hard to post just 2 shots a day, Lucy! I don't have a young family; I am retired and our son, Neil, takes turns at cooking the evening meal, plus he does other bits in the house and so does Ray. But I like to comment on my friends' photos and that's a bit hard to keep up with if I post 4 shots a day.

March 15th, 2014  
Wow! I did not realize they were so big!

@gerry

Thanks, don't think I could hold that eagle!
March 16th, 2014  
WOW! That is one honkin' big bird! Don't think I'd want my FACE that close to that ferocious-looking BEAK! And, don't even get me started about the TALONS! WOO!

MAGNIFICENT! Such an enormous Eagle.
March 21st, 2014  
OMG! How much does she weight? She is probably lighter than we'd think. I love birds of prey! Must fav this shot!
