Looking down at Harper's Ferry WV and the confluence of the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers from Maryland Heights. A small snow covered town sits on a peninsula between two partially frozen rivers, with two railroad bridges crossing the foreground.

Three juvenile bald eagles (?) flying low over a partially frozen river. One of the eagles has a chunk of ice in it's talons. A group of canada geese in the background studiously ignore them.

Two more juvenile bald eagles (?) spectate as the other four swoop around the ice chunk. The one on the left has odds on Bob.

Two juvenile bald eagles (?) spar in the air as four more observe. Who will win the chunk of ice?

At first I thought this group of juvenile bald eagles (?) was fighting over a fish, but turns out they were playing keep-away with a chunk of ice out of the river (canada geese studiously ignoring them). Must be getting ready for the big game! #photography #birds

A downy woodpecker sits on a spruce on a sunny winter day. "Ahh... Febuary" it says. Close up on it correcting "Febrary" then "Febberary..." then finally "Frebrury"

Can't wait for the requirements discourse.

You know who didn't believe in requirements? Stockton Rush, until about 50 milliseconds after requirements decided to have a say.
