    My day has started out good.

    Was out in front of the house and a Big Bald Eagle came up and landed in the next door neighbors tree in front of me. I took my mp camera and took a picture, ****er blended right into the tree.
    stood there and watched him for a few minutes. He was beautiful. watched him jump in the air and spread his wings and fly off.
    I've seen him fly over the house many times before but I still like to see his beauty and his wing spand in the air.

    Even as big as the bird is he blends into the tree without a telephoto lens.
    I had to take the picture and look at the tree and zoom in and stare to even see the bird.
    Was scared if I tried to go into the house to git a camera he would be gone. He sit there for like 5 minutes or less. I've seen him fly down the tree line on the lake for about 13yrs. He has never landed in a tree near me.
    He usually flys out to Pine island or somewhere in the state park. I've gone out in the state park lookin for hours and never seen a nest or where he was at.
    Sent the picture to Chucktx and I wonder if he could even see it in the picture.

    Will Never have verizon phone again. Used them when I had a business for a year. Ask my OL if she likes Verizon.

    Guess you couldn't find the right tree :D

    Oh yea the pictures were great.

    And I live down by the Dam on Livingston. There was a pair put below the dam about 13 yrs ago before they build the 3278 bridge across the bottom of the dam that wasn't there.
