[obol] Basket Slough - 2 Bald Eagles - succesful fish dining

[Annette Lange]

Monday - December 19 -
   
  Drove through lower Basket Slough and sat for quite awhile.
  Two Bald Eagles were flying/fishing the waters - fascinating to watch
  because the brisk wind was cause for creative ventures.
   
  A surprisingly gentle landing delicately picked up a large carpish, orangish looking fish.
  The eagle flew to a stretch of "island" south of the road where another bald eagle was.
  It eventually flew to a very awkward looking branch close to the water and began eating.  The other eagle eventually joined it but I couldn't see if they shared.
   
  Lovely, 
  After seeing the Harris Sparrow and White throated sparrow near Canby - I was happily loving the day despite the weather!
