There be eagles!
Once again, eagles have nested on our property in the Adirondacks. The fellow from the "endangered species unit" of the "wildlife diversity group" of the New York State environmental agency who banded the young birds took these photographs.
This one is suffering mightily from an obnoxious sister and the plague of black flies that hammers the Adirondacks in May and June until the dragonflies come out.
Here's one of the parents, credit me last summer...

Peering ever vigilant at the hypocrisy of socalled Christian family defenders like Sen. Ensign. John Edwards is a cheating tool, but he never professed to be a defender of the faith, aka Promise Keeper. Jeez.
Theodore Roosevelt wanted the North American Grizzly to be our symbol (calling the eagle a vulture); Franklin the turkey. Donte Stallworth, the Monopoly Get Out of Jail Free card...

Must every post be an opportunity for partisanship? That said, your last line is a good one. TR was closer to right than Franklin, but the eagle was the right move in the end.
