Ron.....the Photographer???

I just had to share this story. At Ron's current job site, they noticed an eagle sitting nearby. It just sat there and Ron was able to walk up within three feet of it. Taku Graphics gave Ron their camera to take pictures.....(they must not know of Ron's photography skills - LOL!). Anyway, I just had to show off this picture cause check it out - it came out great and Taku Graphics shared it with us! Back to the story on the eagle. The Raptor Center was called because everyone could tell the eagle was sick. It didn't move at all. Center volunteers rushed to the scene and took this big girl away.....but unfortunately the eagle didn't make it. It had eaten something poisonous. What a bummer..... because she was a beautiful bird. :-) And yes....kudos to Ron cause he took a great picture! Eagles are everywhere up here in SE Alaska, but nonetheless, they are still appreciated because of their beauty. It is rare to get this close and get a shot like this without a telephoto lens.
