State Eagle Count

 


Today Massachusetts officials conducted its annual survey of American Bald Eagles across the state. Dozens of volunteers contribute to the field work and last year a total of 73 bald eagles were spotted. I took my long lens to work and used my lunch hour to see if I could contribute to the project. I spotted a total of three eagles and was lucky to get a photo of this one from a quarter of a mile away. Not one of my better photos but considering the frigid temperatures, extreme windchill, and 40 minute time window, I can’t complain.
