Golden Moment

VJbirdwatching, photographybirdwatching, eagle, photography18 Comments

Golden eagles migrate through here in October/ November. Spotting them is rare, but when I turned the corner and came upon this scene, I knew this bird was not a local. Sorry about the quality. I daren’t roll down the window for fear he would flee, which he did when another car came by.

  He was huge. Took me a moment to figure out what I was seeing.

I never thought of them as migratory before. I suspect it happens in the more northern areas. They are year-round birds here.

  We first encountered them on the West coast. Seeing one here is rare.
