Wow! What a beautiful shot you "captured"!! That is VERY VERY nice. And thank you for visiting my blog, and for your comment on my dragonfly photo and poem being published. I'm never sure whether to respond to people's comments on my site with another comment in that section, or whether to go to their site and respond! Either way works I guess. Again, a very striking Eagle photo.
