[obol] Anna's, Mourning Doves and a Bald Eagle...

[MARC AND KATHY LINDSAY]

Amidst the orchestra of bird chatter I tried to quietly take a picture of my new friend, a male Anna's Hummingbird, on a backyard feeder when two Mourning Doves came and joined in to our soirée.  Before I could get a shot of the Doves, they all flew away and I was left in utter silence.  I looked up and saw a Bald Eagle circling high above.  I didn't think Bald Eagles feasted on other birds, so why the silence?  After spotting two Red-Tailed Hawks last week in my neighborhood and a Bald Eagle this week, it makes me wish I could take a steady photo (with or without a telephoto lens)!  J

 

It certainly turned out to be a beautiful day.  I had to share.
