This is an eagle that has landed on a water pump shed on a farm near our house. I didn't think I had a very good shot of it until I cropped it out of the picture an blew it up.
Janet has bird feeders on our front deck. Many small finches come in large groups to feed; however; today I noticed someone new had come to visit. Before jumping to the conclusion that this is a large dove, take another look at it's beek in the upper picture.
At nights we've had negative tides and are able to walk way out beyond the beach with flash lights and find star fish fastened to the lower sides of large bolders. The color is accurate, they are a deep purple.
