Altruism At Its Best

My friend Dennis sent me these incredible pictures a few weeks ago that was taken January 2009 in Comox, B.C., Vancouver Island. The weather there was so cold that the bald eagles were cruising over houses looking for helpless cats to make a quick meal. Some kind souls decided to feed the eagles at Goose Spit so they would survive the cold spell. Here's what happened in front of someones home.

A beautiful morning feeding the Eagles.

Eagles fighting for the fish.

No zoom lens here...pretty close.

Here are the men who were feeding them...pretty amazing to get this close! It was not long ago, that the American Bald Eagle was an endangered species in our great wild outdoors!
