Bird Week VII: Pairs and More .7 / by Dave Hileman

We shall close out BW7 with these two eagles. Seeing eagles in Alaska is not difficult as they are there in huge numbers but I never tired of them. Watching them fish or soar, sitting in a tree or on an old sign was captivating. Large ,strong, powerful, and majestic are apt descriptive words for the American symbol. I never saw them in large numbers as occur more in the midst of September but we often saw three or four at a time and few if any days passed, even in Anchorage, without spotting at least one. What a treat.

“But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:31 NLT
