In April, as we were feasting on world famous, award winning ribs from Cackle & Oink in Sherman, we were treated to a rare sight for us, a mature bald eagle fishing. Wished I had a faster operating camera to shoot the sequence of her catching a crappie, but was able to get a few pics of her in the air. I can see why it was chosen as the national bird - majestic beauty, great strength & long life. Long live the eagle & our freedom!

It has been years ago but watched one get a bass while I was fishing and they were not biting for us. Just glad she got a fish. There was a nest at the back end of that lake. Another day saw one get a Canada goose at the same lake, probably same eagle or it's mate lf the saying "Liar, Liar your pants on fire" were true Mainstream news might be fun to watch
