The Eagles Have Landed

Before making a complete fool of myself with the cat at Jake's Landing on Sunday (see below), Barbara and I were treated to a fantastic sight on our beach at Ohio Ave:

A closer view of the eagles sitting on the sandbar at low tide

Cropped to see that they are picking at a fish or something

Flying off together

These eagles are often seen sitting on the sandbar that forms at low tide, but only when low tide occurs in the morning before the hustle and bustle of beach walkers and dogs.  They take flight at first sight of people as they did on Sunday.
