We are fortunate that we have many eagles frequent our beach, and we have a nesting pair in our neighbour’s tree we love watching. We particularly enjoy the annual arrival of the new eaglets. We have often witnessed the eagles catching fish and on a few frightening occasions have witnessed one catch a fish that is so heavy it cannot lift it, and since they do not want to release it they must  “swim” to shore, often arriving on the beach utterly exhausted but triumphant! I particularly enjoyed that challenge of the light in the downy little heads!
