luncheon squabble

Yesterday, as I pulled off the interstate headed from refueling point one to refueling point two, I noticed a flock of black birds swirling around above the exit ramp.

One of them was white in the back. And in the front.

A bald eagle. A friggin' bald eagle, here in town.

Tells you what our winter's been like so far, doesn't it? If the eagles are already coming into town?

Seems the eagle had a scrap of something furry in its talons, and at least seven ravens were trying to steal it.

Other traffic raced past as I watched the aerial dogfight from the shoulder of the ramp. Until finally the eagle swept low over a couple semis on the interstate. The black birds turned back to town, and the eagle soared peacefully on south.

Lunch in talon, so to speak.
