Eagles really can get around

Ray Spencer, a old galloot like me who works out of San Diego, California, loves to collect photos of birds. He sent me a photo of a baldy in one of his daily postings that about knocked my socks off. Not only is it a great image of a sub-adult bald eagle flying overhead, but the two orange patagial wing tags (with the number 41 printed on them) are really visible.

Ray started his "Shot of the Day" fandango on January 1, 2004, sending a daily email with a photo (or two) of wildlife - usually birds - to a couple of family members and friends. Over the years, his email list has grown to over 400 addresses, and the pictures-per-email has expanded to about 25. If you want to get on his mailing list, just send him an email ([email protected]
