Eagle

Last year a nesting pair hatched and raised a little one. A week ago a lone eagle landed on a limb of the eagle tree across the pond. It stayed only a few minutes and then lifted off. A few days ago my wife was on the patio when a huge bird flew low overhead. "It was an eagle," she said. "Eagles are big." A few minutes ago, an eagle appeared over the trees across the pond. It soared and banked, flew straight, picked up quite a bit of speed when turning with the wind. And then it flew away. It'll be back.
