Not many yet though. I did manage to get this image yesterday up near Truman Dam.

Nice capture! I'm always so impressed by Bald Eagles.

Wow, great shot Larry. Looks like one kinda lost his footing as he squeezed in on the perch.

Thanks Scott and Bill. They are always fun to watch.
Actually the ice was melting under the eagles and their lunch. He had to lift off a bit to keep from sinking. Looking closely one can see that the female was sinking into the water a bit.

Lots of great eagle-watching locations included in Don's new Missouri's Natural Wonders Guidebook. On this side of the border we've been seeing quite a few eagles along the King's River the past week, and some in the Buffalo area too. We had one fly by the cabin the other day. More and more nests are showing up in Arkansas too so we'll have more yearround residents in the years ahead...

Watching them is lots of fun. Getting close enough to get a great image is another challenge, even with a longgggggg lens.
