He was one of the most spectacular sights I have ever seen. His wing span must have been a good 8 feet. The speed he was flying let me speechless. He came streaking out of the sky skimmed the water and lifted with a sizable fish in his talons. Banking left and then right, as if to display his prize to all, He then launched for the trees nearly a half mile away. It seemed like an instant and he was there.
There are few creatures that can effect a person quite like the American Bald Eagle. They are common in my part of Florida. Each one I see still stops where I am so I can witness his presence and power. Their appearance strikes awe. What a masterpiece they are. A gift to be enjoyed.
