On my way to visit my mom, figured I would take about a five mile detour. I am glad I did. Saw this bald eagle right away.  Then this red winged blackbird  A Honker  A Blue winged Teal  After lunch my dad and I went to wet a line. The fish weren't biting but we did see some Myrtle Warblers.  On my way home I wanted to check out the bald eagle again. Before I got to it I came across a very cooperative pheasant.  Then the eagle again.

rooster pic is great... How close were you when you took the picture? It was about 25 feet away. I managed to snap a couple dozen photos till it ran into an evergreen tree next to the road. Usually the darn things take off running. This one must have known I only had a camera.
