BALD EAGLE​

Haliaeetus leucocephalus

Isaiah 40:31 - But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint.

2019 The adult is pretty clear once I zoomed in on the computer.  Have not seen frequently.  Will keep looking.  We do have a red tailed hawk has a nest two blocks away; so, not sure if that is a deterrent.  This is also one that I believe God sent over our house from the preserve four miles away.  We have since seen it two other times but did not have the camera.  Little jealous of my friends who  have seen an eagles nest in their neighborhood. 
UPDATE: September 2020.  We (CJ spotted first) have see a pair of eagles flying over several times a week! Yipee!
