America The Beautiful

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

I'm obsessed with birds, large birds of prey mostly. There is an array of birds that live on or near the mountain I live on.

This beautiful eagle was flying around last week, only about 50 yards away from my window!

I snapped some quick photos and even followed it out to the field where it landed and sat in a tee for 30 minutes.

I really enjoyed taking these, I hope you enjoy!

All photos taken with my iPhone 5S

Bekka - check out @markvance on Steemit - one of the best bird photographers I know as well as a great friend. Birds are a metaphor for creative freedom to me. In my forthcoming book on creativity one of the Imagination Exercises helps people to experience this. Glad you get to experience this directly - let your creativity soar!

I will definitely check him out! I've recently been interested by them, they're so beautiful and majestic, I'll literally sit in my window looking for them to come flying around the mountain. Thank you!!

Cool looks like a Bald Eagle

It is a bald eagle!! So cool

Eagles are always fun to see. I see you have an Etsy shop that looks like you are in Miami, but these pictures are not from Miami. Where are you living? I followed and upvoted you - good luck with your blog.

I travel back and forth from Miami to where I grew up in upstate Ny. I live in a valley surrounded by mountains and the birds are everywhere. Red tails and ospreys I see a lot but an eagle is a special sight. Thank you! I'm following you too!
