A Scratch, A Fluff, And He’s Ready! | Phil Lanoue Photography

A Scratch, A Fluff, And He’s Ready!

Yesterday afternoon I was watching this bald eagle that was sitting in a pine tree along side the salt marsh. At first he was mostly just looking around surveying the scene with an excellent view from high atop his perch. Quickly though the eagle began to get a bit restless, he scratched, he fluffed, and then I knew he was ready… but for what?

Tune in tomorrow to see what the eagle did next. 🙂

  He did jump off and swoop over the ducks, which has been his habit lately. 🙂

My goodness.I saw the result before the preparation, but either way, both photo sets are terrific. That third photo’s a killer. He looks precisely like someone hatching an evil plot!
