Yesterday was full of excitement, from the time I got to the lake to the time I left. When I first arrived I spotted a couple of eagles. Plus there were many types of waterfowl including common mergansers, American black ducks, and Red-breasted mergansers. The lake was also teeming with seagulls. After about a half an hour more eagles started to show up. I could not even count how many I saw during the day. They were very active fishing, but I did not capture a good shot of any while fishing. I did get a good shot of an eagle while it was taking off. Out of all the photographs I took it seemed like the only good one. I not only got to see eagles chasing ducks and one eagle attack a seagull that had caught a fish, but I also saw eagles locking claws and fighting each other. It was absolutely incredible. I hope when the snow stops, that I can get another chance at the lake this afternoon.
