Description

Two Bald Eagles I saw in this area that is now Cypress Park. Fascinating to watch.

I first saw one down on the edge of the retaining pond. It was eating something. Because it's mate flew low over the retaining pond and scared a bunch of ducks, I think the one was having a gourmet duck dinner.

The ducks flapped their wings and were scared, but were smart enough not to take off.

The one that was eating you can see In a Pinetree. If you look closely, you can see that it has something in its talons.

Eventually, they flew off in a direction downstream along Cypress Creek.
