Bald Eagle at East Harbor State Park
Two days ago, September 14th., 2012, I was lucky enough to see a adult Bald Eagle at East Harbor state park in northern Ohio.
So far I have only ever seen three bald eagles in the wild, and two of them have been seen at East Harbor SP. The first I ever saw in the wild was at Rocky Fork SP in southern Ohio. It was a juvenile that appeared to be a first year eagle.
There isn't much to write about a bird sighting (unless it is a rare bird), so I will post pictures, from the first eagle I ever saw, to the most recent. Enjoy!
(Don't mind the power line)

Third Eagle at East Harbor SP
My picture gets a little better each time! Maybe next time it will be perfect. I read recently that bald eagles are becoming more and more common in the Lake Erie region of Ohio, and in 2002 Ohio had over 20 pairs of nesting eagles.
