Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day!
Sight and Sound

The eagle is our national symbol here in the U.S.A. so I choose this photo to celebrate our "Independence Day" July 4th, but I realize that eagles mean something special to most everyone as they are a fantastic and majestic bird.

I was so excited to be able to see these eagles right down the road from where I live. What an joy to watch them dive into the water below and then go up and land in this big fir tree.

Happy Independence Day to you and your family Karen! :)

Hadn't come across that track before so was intrigued to listen to it, but sadly neither link worked for me over here! :(

Did find this one though and it's matched with an interesting video:

Thanks, Paul.

That's funny. The video you posted is the same as my first link. Pretty interesting stuff, huh? As John Mellencamp says: "but ain't that America." lol

Even funnier is the fact that your link now seems to be working for me, but the second one still doesn't want to play ... something about me being in the wrong country! :(

I hope you are enjoying your Independence Day Karen, a great shot of majestic birds. Your 'new shoes' shot is ideal for the ipernity group 'Baby Club' I did find some very old photos !!
