May 4th was a foggy/hazy morning, and the fog drifted in and out between the eagle and me. It was a challenge to photograph him in the shadows of the tree."

"I waited two hours for him to fly over the ocean. It was worth the wait. They are magnificent birds."

To see these beautiful birds continue to recover in numbers and expand their territories is a joy. Thanks to Joanne for allowing me to share her photos with you here.

Looks like the wet weather has left for now. Beautiful  cumulus clouds are moving over the ocean, southward. It's breezy, sunny with a big dose of loveliness.
