To Eagle and everyone who loves pictures::  A fellow volunteer from the CPF sent me this link tonight, it's pictures of our Burlington family - dad had been in a confrontation with another male eagle and was seriously injured during the fledging of the 3 young ones and is now on the mend (this is the one I mentioned in another post where the female went after the intruder to defend her mate after his injury).  

All I can say is wow!!  Shots of the juvies doing acrobatics in the air, food handoffs, etc.  And pictures of parents; dad healing well and flying proud, you can see his healing wound on his chest.  Lots of other beautiful birds as well after page 5.

I've been purchasing this magazine since March, it has 6 issues per year.  The latest issue I picked up yesterday has a beautiful picture of a Peregrine in it but I can't find a link to it, yet. If I do I will post it.
