Countdown 365 -T8

Total Miles Driven: 45.3 Miles:
With "spring winter" weather in the air, I once again made a local trip looking for antlered moose. Driving the North Fork Loop road once again from the north end in Anchor Point to the south end. Although, a pretty drive with the mountains across Cook Inlet providing a great backdrop, no moose were sighted.
Taking a trip into Homer, Alaska, finding blue sky and the temperature at 46 degrees, I could not resist visiting the Homer Spit to "shoot" the American Bald Eagles. The Homer Spit is a prime area for "shooting eagles". During the "Feeding the Eagles" campaign, you were likely to see several hundred eagles per trip. Now that the feeding program has been halted, the Eagles are still present although the numbers are ten percent of what they have been in past years. On my return trip, I drove the Sterling Highway through the Anchor River valley, still not seeing any moose.

Great lighting on these! The rule of thirds plays nicely on the last eagle shot.
