Bald Eagle Fly Over

I've seen them in zoo's.  I've seen them on TV.  I've seen hundreds of pictures of them.  Today I saw my first Bald Eagle in the wild... so to speak. 

I had filled the bird feeder and then started adding some water to the pond.  As I was standing around this huge bird was approaching at about 50 feet.  It looked just like the pictures.  It was very large and I was awestruck.  What a magnificent bird.  After he was gone I just stood there and then said to myself, "WOW."

Then I started telling folks about what I saw and it would appear I'm the only person in the whole world that hasn't seen a Bald Eagle in the wild.  Can't say that anymore.
