For some unusual Saturday entertainment, a visit was made to a local raptor center, where this golden eagle was on display. Up close, it was an impressive, quite large bird.
Below is a cute little owl with feathery ears that was brought out to look us over.
A very common bird around here is a red tailed hawk. Once, I counted 45 of them on the way to work, an average of one a mile. This one is a very similar bird, a falcon. This one looks like it would love to make a meal of your innards! It takes a two year apprenticeship to officially become a falconer, so a person must really be dedicated to become one.
An interesting way to spend a Sunday afternoon, no doubt.
