Realities of Nature

Explore June 22/08 ..Bald Eagle (View Large) Carrying a gull back to nest to feed two very active immature eagles. Note feathers of seagull on its beak. They are doing a lot of wing flapping getting ready to start branch hopping, before they fledge or leave the tree. Eagles will bring back a variety of food ranging from fish, gulls, cats and small dogs and more! The eagle was exhausted when it got to the nest and stood there gasping for breath with its tongue hanging out. The gull was probably caught over the ocean and brought inland to its nest. Cloudy sky gives the clear background. IMG_2172
