Beautiful day today. High of 75F. Lows in the upper 60'sF. Clear blue skies under a Canadian High. I did not get a lot done this morning. Mostly paperwork, bills, and filing for shows. I got the heron painting finished and foiled. I got the turtle painted and foiled. And I got two transoms foiled. All of this is ready to got to soldering tomorrow morning first thing!

The river was full of Eagles this morning. At one time I counted 5.

This adult came too close to the Osprey's nest. The Ospreys came off the nest, out of the tree, and were all over this poor guy (looks like he is molting, given the absents of primaries).
This is a shot of the Osprey after an initial dive. The aerial combat was impressive!
Here we have the Eagle with his head turned up to watch the attack. Look at the talons of the Osprey out and in attack mode.
Here the Eagle has flipped over to greet the attacker. It is amazing to see these birds, both with talons extended, ready to do damage.
In this shot, notice the "splash" in the water behind the eagle. This is a fish the Eagle dropped. Also notice the Osprey is all over the Eagle. This was a great opportunity to watch these two species in action. The Osprey are certainly territorial.

Tomorrow, complete the panels, tag-n-bag, load the truck, and take off for Lewes, DE for the St.Petes' Fine Arts Festival. Sherry had done a wonderful job of producing inventory this week! We should be OK on Saturday!
