Eagles on the Skagit

Went up Highway 20 past Concrete looking for Eagles to shoot. Slim pickings today as the weather was really bad. Clouds obscured most of the ground and the tops of trees. Reports said their were over 200 Eagles nesting along that stretch. I saw maybe 20. Like me, the birds were wet and miserable.

Besides the birds, cars were everywhere and boats were zipping up and down the river. Counted as many boats as birds. The noise from the boats were probably keeping most of the birds farther up river.

These were the best two shots I got. Not a very good day for such a long drive.
