Takeoff......

            2022-10-02 1286-CR2-L4E1T1

Taken Sunday morning during my walk through Grand Ravines North Park. This is my first flight photo I have taken since April 3 of this year....way  too long. 

But this one has a kind of a funny story to it. I meet Lee on Sunday mornings when I go to the Ravines and he has a knack of looking away from the Eagles when they take off. Well....this morning we were both standing there watching this Eagle in the tree for 20-30 minutes and nothing was happening. So Lee decides to wipe clean his lens and is talking away while I have my eyes on the Eagle knowing what is about to happen. As Lee has his back to the Eagle he takes off right on queue and I am shooting away and laughing. Thanks Lee....
