Eagle Sighting in Florida?

[rockhillmanor]

I saw an Eagle today!
I always thought I would have to check off my RV bucket list to Alaska to see them.

I was driving down the road and it came out of the trees and over my car. What a site to behold! I almost ran off the road trying to see more of it flying! :C

......and the sighting was in all places Dunnellon, Florida!!!

We live just south of Dunnellon, in Citrus Co. Florida. Many Eagles are seen regularly at our landfill.

Google "the Potomac Eagle" & you will see a fantastic train trip that highlights the wild bald eagles that live alone the Potomac river. It is located in Romney, WV.

It is one of several scenic railroads located in WV.
Cass Scenic Railroad
The Durbin Rocket
The Cheat Mountain Salamander
Tygart Valley Flyer

Go, & be amazed!:B

Well here's another picture of what gets mistaking for an eagle. This osprey landed on my post all of eight feet away from the RV door. Sitting inside and heard a chirping sound. When I opened the door this is what I saw. That's a 4x4 post, look at those claws. :E

I have seen several here in northern NY while fishing out on some lakes. However, my best sighting was on the golf course in Crystal River this winter sitting in a tree next to the tee box. Awesome bird from 50 feet away.

Wow! What great photos you all were able to get. :C

MN DNR eagle cam Good video during the day and, if you watch daily, you may see an eagle hatch from the eggs.

I didn't read all 4 pages of this thread. But, I see them all the time now. They are really getting thick. I remember when I saw the first one. It was about 15 years ago. I stopped the truck and took pictures of it.

With my Kodak film disposable camera.

Now, I see them all the time. I saw one last Sunday driving down the road.

They are an everyday bird here in WI in the winter. We had 4 of them actually stay through the summer last year. They actualy like to find cold climates around here. They love the rivers and find an open water area in the frozen areas. This gives them good fishing because the fish will all have to surface in the same spot.. I have hundreds of photos of them over the years. They have made a huge comeback in the last 10 years.

Everyday birds are also fairly common here in the Northeast.

No need to go to Alaska to see eagles. They are abundant here in Indiana.
