Bald Eagle Perched and In Flight
Pulling out of my driveway a few days ago, I looked up and saw a perched Bald Eagle! I stopped the car, grabbed my camera in the passenger seat, and got out slowly to get a photo.

He suddenly started calling.

And getting excited, fluffing those chest feathers!

A female eagle overhead returned the calls. As I was trying to find her, the perched eagle took flight to chase after her.


He quickly caught up with her and they began to fly together.


It was beautiful to watch them bond while in flight.

That last one was a poor shot but I loved the precision flying together!

What an extraordinary experience. Thanks for sharing it!
Great shots and commentary.
Timing, good timing. And location too. Nice !
They are so close together on that last shot. Amazing! Thanks for sharing it. 😁
So gorgeously natural. Nature at its finest. The last so apt. May they long continue to fly well together!
Brilliant – especially the focus on the beak.

You were lucky to catch two eagles on a romantic date. 🙂
Very nice, photos and recounting!
Magnifique!
