Gone fishing

I took a weekend trip up the Hudson and was happy to catch some bird action.  Most notably, this osprey who had just caught a fish.









The osprey was flying around near the Hudson-Athens lighthouse, where gulls and cormorants sunned themselves on the roof.

If you get out your magnifying glass and look at that tiny black speck at the top of the trees just to the left of the lighthouse, you'll see it's a.... 



Bald eagle!





A magnificent surprise.
