Watching

I reached deep into the vault for this one … shot near Louisbourg, N.S., four years ago. Was totally *not* expecting to see a bald eagle on the beach.

Just posted a whack of pictures from my trip to the East Coast to my Flickr site.
Here are a few of my favourites.

From my buddy T.J.’s wedding:
Dragged kicking and screaming ... not

Outside the wedding venue … a giant fiddle:

Saw this Thursday as I was driving away from the Louisbourg Fortress National Historic Site in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.

Taking flight

Thirsty
I’ve never seen an eagle this close up before!
