Just a Little Something.....

After spending the day watching Noah play basketball in Faribo and Connor play Park and Rec, we dropped my parents off at home. My parents still live in the house I grew up in, which is in town.
 
We hit the road and not a half mile into our journey home we ran across a little something hanging out in a tree......



I can see my parents house through the backyard of where we saw this eagle. I about died. I get pretty amped up when I see a hawk while driving, so I was basically freaking out at seeing this.
 
I had the camera due to take pictures of Noah and Connor playing ball so I took one look at Mike and he knew to turn around.
 
I knew Eagles weren't like other birds, and so I knew he wouldn't get scared off so I have about 25 picture of this same shot.



At one point he/she looked at me as if to say,
"You lookin' at me?"
 
 
He clearly was annoyed with me at one point and decided to take flight......which I kind-of wasn't ready for. Settings need to be changed on a camera when things are moving.....




And then landed in another tree to check things out.
 
 
 
 
 
Highlight of my weekend, for sure. So incredibly cool.
 
Happy Sunday!

Really cool pictures! Odd that the eagle was in town! Maybe your mom and dad should start putting food out for it!
