A Serendipitous Bald Eagle

I was rolling down the road towards home from coffee, when I spotted this mature Bald Eagle in a tree close to the road.

I didn’t have my camera, but dark clouds told me that rain was imminent, so I hit the house, bounced out with the camera, and got back to the Eagle hoping it was still laid up in the tree. It was, and I squeezed off a half dozen shots before the eagle decided the guy with the camera was suspicious and the weather was clear enough to fly.
