Three's Company
Every year, eagles gather in their thousand in British Columbia, attracted by the salmon returning to their spawning grounds. The effect is a spectacular display of drama, nature, beauty, and the harshness of nature. However, amongst it all are times of peace and tranquility. These three were sharing this tree stump for a long time, conserving energy and letting their last meal go down. Despite all the thousands of eagles gathered, there are signicant amounts of time where nothing happens, or the eagles are too far away to observe, or photograph, in detail. As with all wildlife watching, patience was the key, being out all day in the cold, rain, and wind, often lying in uncomfortable places and positions, waiting for something to happen.
