I love photographing chickadees. They’re so curious, that when you make whispy sounds with your lips they can’t help but come right up to you out of curiosity. 🪶

"Under Attack"

This photo was extremely fun to capture. A Bald Eagle flew over the jetty we were on being chased by some attacking gulls. It turned it's body to defend itself, and I captured this shot.

Keep fighting, keeping calling your senators, and keep watching them Bald Eagles flying high. 🪶 Remember, fear is our weakness, but love is our strength. Keep being passionate, empathetic, and loving humans. We need each other, now more than ever. #birds
