This Bald Eagle is my 7th photo in my 25 for '25 list. I quickly pulled to the side of the road for this one. This led to some photos of this eagle with a squirrel roadkill in flight.

A vertical, eye-level shot capturing a serene forest scene featuring towering, thick tree trunks with rough, textured bark lining a dirt path. Lush green bushes cluster in the bottom left foreground, while the path leads the eye deep into the soft, misty background of the woods.

This festive #MineralMonday is brought to you by Kinoite and Apophyllite. This sample is from the Christmas Mine in Gila Co., Arizona. A fitting specimen for the holiday season!
A mounted mineral specimen from Christmas Mine, Gila County, Arizona. The specimen has sharp, deep blue crystals of Kinoite and clear crystals of Apophyllite. The Apophyllite is transparent making it difficult to see many of the crystals. The crystals are on a buff colored sandstone.
