Bald Eagle Calling at Delta Ponds

I made a trip to Delta Ponds, the first there in a while. It was so nice to get back to that old photo walk area. I will have to schedule regular visits there. On this visit, I got a number of the bald eagles, the first I have seen this year. I liked getting this one with beak open, calling for its mate likely. None showed up however. There was also an immature eagle there. Got my taste of Great Blue Heron, and a little Grebe who seemed to have lost a wing. Will post a photo of that bird later. I had hoped for the sun to break through while I was there but the sky remained cloudy, so a white sky background for the photo. But I was delighted to capture the eagle in this pose. I had to crop a lot of the image, in order to get the eagle a decent size.

He is saying "Take my picture Vern" because he knows what a great photographer you are. Great shot! I like it against the white background.
