Soaring by the autumn leaves
Today was a perfect Indian Summer day, with the autumn leaves still coloring the landscape. With a warmer day, a trip up to Conowingo Dam was due with a friend. It is her birthday week and part of the outing was to begin with the Bald Eagles that stay at the dam.
While there were about 25 bald eagles, and the action was a little quiet, fishing was still happening. Along with some nice fly by’s and some dive bombing the eagles entertained us well.
I’m looking forward to spending a lot of time with them this next month to see if I can come away with that ‘gallery’ shot. It was indeed a very good day.

You’re absolutely right Mark. But I tell you, after chasing warblers for a while, a large target like an eagle is super easy!
Wow! It’s my turn to be jealous again, so many great shots of eagles!
Oh you would love it so much at the dam. A bunch of guys hang out at the dam with their huge lenses.You’d fit right in!
So cool!!!!

🙂 Thank you so much. I’d imagine you don’t see any bald eagles right?
No, we have Golden Eagles in the Lake District and the Scottish Highlands, but no Bald Eagles
So majestic! They are very beautiful photos 🙂
Aren’t eagles amazing? I never bore of them. And they giggle !!
Sublime!
Now that is a word I haven’t heard in a long time. Thanks Fatima.
Fantastic work…love the 2 with autumn colour.
A friend of mine showed me his pics of the eagles in front of the autumn color. I knew I wanted some too, so I’m so happy that I got there when there was still color. Thanks Beth.
Fabulous!!
You are too kind. Thank you!
WOW – love birds of prey – love the action shots!!!
Thank you so much Renee ! I love how all the camera shutters click off when there is action at the dam. It’s fun to be a birding papparazzi.
