But hopefully with the eagles making such a tremendous comeback, someday I'll get the chance. In the meantime, thanks for the great pictures!
All these turkey and bald eagle pictures out of the blue. Say, you're not the reincarnation of Benjamin Franklin, are you?
Franklin was quoted as having preferred the wild turkey on our National Seal, instead of the bald eagle. I understand, because I used to prefer a bit of Wild Turkey myself, way back when.
"For in Truth the Turkey is in Comparison [to the bald eagle] a much more respectable Bird, and withal a true original Native of America. He is besides, tho' a little vain and silly, a Bird of Courage, and would not hesitate to attack a Grenadier of the British Guards who should presume to invade his Farm Yard with a red Coat on."
