Corydon Indiana Eagles - a photo on Flickriver

            Every chance I get with a new ear, I discuss wildlife photography. Those closest to me have become certainly numb to my consistent ramblings and have no doubt perfected the obligatory nod. However as it often does, persistence paid off!

Two weeks ago I was meeting with my boss and another co-working friend. With the precision of huckster days gone by, I masterfully wove wildlife photography into the conversation. To my amazement one of the ladies replied “we have eagles in our backyard”… a reply I have heard before only to go and find everything from pigeons to hawks. It was when she shared an iPhone photo of a bald eagle sitting in a tree and invited me to come by anytime that triggered my out of body experience!

This morning I showed up at her home commenced to capture some 160+ shots of this mature male. My presence and actions have been the cause of many eagles scream over the years, but in this case he was going through the motions, with nothing coming out. As I closed the gap he would open his mouth, always in the direction of the nest. I believe he was communicating with the nest in a range that a human cannot hear. I just hope he had nice things to say!
