Double Eagle
Growing up in Delaware (way back in the 1960s) it was very special to see even one Bald Eagle. Agricultural use of the pesticide DDT had all but wiped out the population. But, at last count, Delaware had 120 Bald Eagles and this morning I had five of them right in front of me. This pair was very comfortable being photographed up close and personal.

Excellent pic. There is a family of bald eagles in Dover, behind Holy Cross church. We’re lucky to be able to see 2-3 at a time in flight above Dover every now and them.
