I have seen them flying off in the distance while anchored in a cove. But at the beginning of this winter, I got a GREAT sighting. I was walking through the woods along the waters edge and I heard a loud noise above me. I looked up and a bald eagle flew about 10 feet over my head. He must of been perched on a branch above my head. I watched as he flew in a large circle around the cove. I tood there in awe but it got better. A second later, the same thing. another one flew about 10 feet over my head and out over the water. I wish someone was there to see it or I had a camera. The wing span on these birds was unbelivable (and I fish but I can't even exaggerate on the size of these birds). To be that close.......once in a lifetime experience.
