Observation details

In my life I've never seen so many Bald Eagles in one spot let alone in a near feeding frenzy. Truly wild to watch it in every sense. Difficult to get an accurate count as they were actively feeding in the Haw River for hours. At one point I counted 42 perched while maybe 6 were swooping over the water.
