As many times as I can get out into Siouxland and look for places that the American bald eagle might be hanging out these days during migration, I never tire of watching them. Sitting in tree tops, perched, alert, ever watchful. Of course if I was always looking for a meal I would probably do the same, except for perching in tree tops.
The winter season has not left the area as more snowstorms or wintry weather mix is still occupying most of the days recently and into the near future. It seems this year I have been out photographing on more overcast, cloudy and hazy days than I remember from last year. So while it may not be as ideal of photography weather with crisp blue skies setting off the eagles flying or perched, the joy and fun of watching them is still there.
Good luck on the weather. Mostly cold rain here, but starting to annoy me as I want to get back out in the field, there are birds to tin ha. Enjoyed all the eagles.
Thanks for taking a peek. Yeah. Most winter weather, warm up, then more winter weather. But long range forecast has a few days, more than 3, looking to stay in the 40’s and near 50. Hope “springs” eternal. Yeah, it was intended. Enjoy all those spring flowers, eventually.
I live in the Siouxland area that encompasses a wide swatch of land in northwest Iowa, northeastern Nebraska and southeastern South Dakota. The people that inhabit this area are generous folk and your basic honest, Midwestern people you like to have as neighbors. I explore the area and share observations, mostly photographic, sometimes through video, and and short text. All images and video are copyrighted material of the author.
