I took that photograph at Perry's Mill Pond in Fairfield, CT this past week.
Although it's hard to tell from that photograph, that is a Bald Eagle. I was like the cliche deer in the headlights when I spotted this bird in flight in the sky. It was doing a fly over, probably heading closer to the shoreline. I only managed to get one photo before he was gone. But what a thrill to see this beautiful bird, which is slowly making a comeback here in Connecticut! The pond here was frozen, so there was no fishing to be done.
We get bald eagles here but mostly close to the Mississippi River, which is downtown. I don't ever see them here. It's exciting to hear they're making a comeback there.
