Title: Photos from Bald Eagle Watch Post by: Patti from Kentucky on 31-Mar-11, 11:31:11 PM I'm two months behind, but I've attached some photos Jeane and I took during an Eagle Watching weekend at Kentucky's Land Between the Lakes, and Tennessee's Cross Creeks National Wildlife Refuge. Land Between the Lakes has about 180 wintering Bald Eagles, with many more in the surrounding area, which is full of wildlife refuges, state wildlife management areas, Mississippi and Ohio River floodplains, and a general panoply of wetlands. Most of the eagle photos were taken from the dock of a moving cruise boat using my Kodak point-and-shoot, so they are not ready for publication in National Geographic, but perhaps you'll enjoy some of them...

they surprise me no end. I just find it...very...shocking...to see THAT in a tree. Thanks! Title: Re: Photos from Bald Eagle Watch Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 01-Apr-11, 04:09:52 AM Excellent, Patti!
