Sky Watch - The Bald Eagle's Realm

The eagle is still perched in the tree tops near the house as I write this. He's been there for over two hours now and is getting the full benefit from the heat of the sun on this very cold day in the interior.The bald eagle sits just below the snowflake.
His/her beautiful feathers from the back. Scroll down to the bottom of the page if you would like to see the Bald Eagle in profile (a photo taken last week).

By the way, while I was taking these photos the chickadees were flitting in and out of the lower branches and didn't appear all that bothered by the huge bird at the top of the tree.

More wonderful pictures of the sky can be viewed at Sky Watch Friday. Many thanks to Klaus and the SW team.
