My Heart Still Flutters when I'm driving through the canyon and I spot the stunning white head of a majestic bald eagle in a tree ahead. And it was no different on this weeks sunrise Photography Adventure with the Bald Eagles of Park County Colorado.

Winter Adventure With Bald Eagles

It was another beautiful Colorado afternoon for a winter adventure with the bald eagles of the annual migration. Eleven Mile Canyon in Lake George was mentioned as a location for eagles making the long trip for the winter migration, so I thought I'd check it out.

Sky Dancers: Bald Eagle Breeding Season

Bald Eagle Pair

We arrived at Eleven Mile Canyon to a scene few could imagine or have been so privileged to witness. Our bald eagle nesting pair was soaring together in what could only be described as a moment of pure joy as they closed in on each other and clasped talons in a beautiful dance high in the blazing blue Colorado sky.

Even though I knew it was going to be too cold, I decided to check on our bald eagle nesting pair anyway. When I arrived I was glad to find them both near the nest, guarding over their home for the next few months.
