Check out the bald eagle family on their kill! We saw seven eagles today and I got a lot of clicks. I was puzzled when I came upon a fresh kill site and was looking around trying to figure out who the predator was, when all of a sudden I looked up and realized I was at a eagle’s fresh kill site being stared at by a most perturbed eagle! That’s him above. (Please click to enlarge).
Here is the juvenile. What a thrill to watch him! He was as big as mama.
Beautiful isn’t he?
Here’s the eagle on the kill. There were multiple kills deposited here, fish and birds.
The eagle has landed!
Here is mama and her offspring.
This eagle was outside our balcony when we got up this morning, farther away, but still a thrill!
We are in Egmont Canada where these photos were taken. Internet is via satelite and is extremely slow here so please forgive me for not being able to follow your posts as I would like. I can only squeak out a post when the satelite is beaming it’s rays upon me, which isn’t often! In two days we move deeper into the wilderness, into the Tantalus Mountain Range where the peregrines and bald eagles nest in the highest concentration in North America! We missed the orcas today spy hopping in the inlet.
Cheers to you and may the spirit of the eagles soar directly to your heart, as they have into mine!

Fantastic shots, Cindy. Well captured.
So appreciated!
Amazing pictures!
Merci beaucoup!~
you are a photographer of the Gods. That’s all there is to it. Blessed with talent and travel and infinite one of a kind timing. 🙂 Your room with a view is spectacular–hence the spectators. Brav-A!!
Aww! You are very kind and your comments are so appreciated!!! Hugs to you my friend!
Extraordinary photos Cindy!
Mil grazi!
Wonderful, Cindy!!!
So kind!!! Mil grazi~
wow! These are great pix! Thank you for sharing! How lucky you are to have all this right in your own backyard!
Wonderful pictures! They are not very different looking than the ospreys we have here, only with more white on the head 🙂
Yes ospreys are magnificent birds and quite similar!

Amazing photography of one of the most regal birds. We have some in the mountains here and I could watch for hours.
Awwww, so kind and so appreciated~
Oh Cindy you take us to some of the most fascinating places, thank you for taking the time to grapple with the satellite to share them with us.
*&^%$#@ satellite!!!! But you so happy you enjoyed Pauline!
Don’t stress Cindy, I will wait and look forward to more amazing photos when you get home. In the mean time just enjoy your experience in the wilderness and tell us all about it when you get back to the Holla
All is good even though we are back in real civilization Canadian style meaning we are wearing our bear bells! Laughing~
You have a ton of comments! Wow! I am amazed and so glad I nominated you for a family award today! I am off for breakfast and an arts and crafts fair in the country… Take care and Congratulations!! Robin
You rock ma deah!! Merci beaucoup!
These photos are fabulous. You are so lucky to have witnessed the eagles first hand. What a thrill it must have been. 🙂
It is just exactly that, a thrill!!
Astounding photography!! The shot of the two eagles together is phenomenal…what a great post. Thanks.
Awwwww so motivating!! )
Rally amazing captures, Cindy. Loved seeing these bald eagles. So beautiful. 🙂
Aren’t they incredible! Such a joy to see them up close!

Vielen danke!!!
Great pics yet again. 🙂
🙂
Great pic, the eagle looked like he had some serious plans for you. Glad you made out unscathed
He was definitely not liking me until I moved off his kill pile. Live and learn. Next time you are in this situation remember to stay off the eagle’s kill pile. 😉
Thanks, I will never forget it.
wow, this was just amazing showing a melody.
Don’t mess with Mr. and Mrs. Bald Eagle!
Cindy…all your publications are simply beautiful.
As my friend, are yours!!!
Merci.
I have never, EVER saw our national bird in nature. I saw one poor thing in captivity but I yearn to see one in the wild. You are soooo fortunate.
I think my friend you might go to the Sunshine Coast. If you go in the shoulder season the already low Canadian prices are even lower. Much better deals than in the US AND there are no tourists and very few people. You get around by rental car and ferry. It truly is remarkable. We are already planning returns to Canada in 2015 this time to Waterton NP in combo with Yellowstone, and if I can figure out the timing, back to the Knight Inlet to see the orcas and grizzlies!
My Hubby and I love the gorgeous Eagles. You captured breath taking photos. 🙂 Renee Thanks so much for sharing all this beauty of Canada.
Aren’t the eagles just magnificent birds! Such a thrill to get near them!
Powerful and majestic birds. Love Eagles. ♥
Wonderfully photographed, truly; such beautiful birds.
Thank you! Such a thrill to have been near them. Cheers to you~
There’s nothing like seeing them wild in their natural habitat.
A big thrill for me definitely!!!
Such an awesome bird! Great photos!
I agree with you, bald eagles are impressive! Thanks much~
Great shots! What thrills! I have seen them in the wild, not so close and it is exhilirating.
It because it is rare for me to see them and they are such regal creatures! Cheers to you and thanks too~
Really clear photos – you have certainly captured the essence of the bird
I am so pleased you think so!! Thank you & cheers to you~
Your eagle photos are stunners, and I love how scruffy the juvenile looks!
I have to tell you seeing bald eagles this closely with a juvenile was a thrill of a lifetime, so I am happy you enjoyed it too!
You’ve had quite a few avian thrills of a lifetime! Your falconer posts, with the red tailed hawks, were thrilling from afar.
The raptors are a source of endless fascination for me. Your photos knock my socks off!!
These are fantastic.Thanks for sharing.
I was pretty thrilled to come upon them, so thank you!
