Back with Eagles

Once again returning to the secluded clearing in the bush where I had found Eagles collecting in the fall.
Sitting at the start of the bush trail and pondering different ideas on just how to approach them while watch them through the bush.
It soon became apparent that some of the Eagles were using the trail clearing as a flight path.
Then the light bulb went on…it only made sense to sit and wait rather than me go to them.
Well realizing my approach had been wrong on the previous two trips…I made a mental note on that morning for next year’s trips.

Cheers !

Eagle on the Move in the Snow

My internal alarm clock went off early yesterday, you don’t want to know how early. Starting with some coffee…then there was lunch to make and gear to pack while most still sound asleep.

The forecast was positive and this day would be my last visit North up along the shores of Lake Winnipeg for Eagles.

Up until now I’ve shared a couple perched Eagle shots which are fun to see and photograph…but perhaps time for some action as the snow let up.

One of life’s little pleasures is sharing with others that may not have the opportunity to see Eagles up-close and personal in the wild.

Another Day with the Eagles

Another trip up along the shores of Lake Winnipeg. The day was a mixed bag of conditions…dull and overcast cloud cover with the odd sunny break then darker clouds and snow as I traveled farther North.
The snow heavy at times proved to be a challenge with the camera wanting to focus on the snowflakes rather than the birds…grrrr !
Never the less an enjoyable day but glad I have a 4×4 as the road become somewhat slippery.
