About From Homer, AK.
The decision to select the Bald Eagle as the United States national bird was not without controversy. Benjamin Franklin, a respected naturalist of his day, opposed the decision because of this bird's "dishonorable" habit of scavenging and stealing fish from Ospreys.

Thanks Dave,
I am glad Ben Franklin did not have his way.
Otherwise they probably would not have been so aggressive protecting the bald eagle from the DDT era.

Best.

I think Ben wanted the Turkey as the national bird???
Anyway Yamil I think you should take some of these fantastic captures to the post office and have them make some stamps for you. If you do I'd love to buy some.
Wonderful......just.......Wonderful!!!!

An interesting background, Yamil, but I'm sure if Benjamin had seen your photos he'd change his mind!
Another great eagle shot!
