This Eagle Has Confidence!


Check out this entry on an Illinois bird list serve - it details the attack on a full size white tail deer by a golden eagle. http://ilbirds.com/index.php?topic=32809.0 The birder did an awesome job detailing this amazing observation. The intent look in the eagle eyes and the "What the hell?" look in the deer eyes shows up in the other photos. On a much less dramatic note, my project feeder watch update included 4 black capped chickadees, one goldfinch, 2 junco, 2 white breasted nuthatch, 1 downy woodpecker, and one proud robin who sat proudly on the basswood branch closest to the window for me to admire for a long time.
