My wife and I drove up to the Squaw Creek refuge, about 75 miles north of us. I wasted a great photo opportunity; early in the visit we witnessed two bald eagles take down a snow goose, then one flew a few hundred yards away with it, then the two settled into what seemed like would be a protracted standoff discussion of the principle of "possession is nine points of the law" or whatever. So we went on, thinking that one of the levee-top trails would get us closer to their site. And never spotted them again. And the photos I took of them from the first location are all pitiful. Fortunately we had several more opportunities later in the afternoon with other residents of the area.
I have added a few more shots to my Winter gallery, starting with this one taken by my wife of a scruffy looking photographer... http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/h27ea2ee2 stan ================ Nice gallery. (Looks cold, though.) http://photos.stanhalpin.com/p821843095/h27ea2ee2#h314780f1 I really like that one. Good timing.
