That is a great shot. I live in Arkansas and over the years, I'm starting to see more and more bald eagles. Saw one a few months fly over the highway as I was driving by. I have an uncle with a house on a river here and we see them there quite a bit!

They truly are majestic. Great choice for a national bird.

Is that a bluejay?

So while looking up my facts to make a comment, I learned that Ben Franklin did NOT want to make the turkey the national bird, but he did oppose the Bald Eagle since he believed that they didn't make their 'living' fairly. TIL.
