Bald Eagle

(click on pictures for better viewing)




I see him there
at the bridge
slow down
got to stop
careful now
don't slam
the car door

feet meet ground
head pops up
camera aiming

from a lofty perch
Eagle watches
this odd display
all the while
giving me
his eagle eye
gauging
is she friend or foe

wind rushes through
tousling feathers
causing trees to sway
Eagle hangs on
with talons meant
for clutching a fish
