We were lucky yesterday to see 11 majestic Bald Eagles at one time - there may have been others in the area. They had found a dead Canada Goose on the ice along the edge of the Bow River - the far side, of course, ha! - and adult and juvenile Eagles were busily feeding on it. Crows and Magpies were also joining in. Despite the size difference, Crows will pull on the tail feathers of an Eagle, to distract it from feeding. Taken on 31 January 2013 at Carburn Park. A total of 25 bird species was seen, including a male Ring-necked Pheasant and a Killdeer. Until maybe 8 or 9 years ago, when I bought my very first digital camera and eventually got into "birding", I had no idea that we have Bald Eagles in Calgary - lots of people are still very surprised when they learn this. How lucky we are!
