Judy and I were standing on the deck of the Weather Station overlooking Little Sawgrass lake, watching the birds. A flock of Coots were loosly grouped on the lake and we had watched an Osprey hunting for a while.

Then we spotted a different bird. We thought at first he might be another Osprey, but to our delight he turned out to be a Bald Eagle.

Darn my whimpy camera, I couldn't get a good, clear photo of him!

He fished the lake for about 10 minutes, striking the water several times before making a catch and flying away with it.

The flock of Coots that had been paddling about so peacefully before the Eagles' arrival really got their pinfeathers in a bunch! The flock all scurried together into a tight little group, with much squawking and splashing about.
