morning at the lake... georgetown lake montana

the water really is that clear... the shore line in front of our cabin is closed this time of year to fishing... so on a calm morning... like today... you can just sit on a rock and enjoy the view. the ice finally left the lake this morning... just a little berg left floating in the middle... and all the while i enjoyed these fish... i watched three bald eagles sit upon that ice... if only i had had along my big lens...then i could have shared that with you too.
luckily... another threesome of eagles... one may be an osprey... came to visit the treetops just above our cabin... again... wishing for the other lens... can you see them? hint two in the tree on the right... the bald eagle is higher and near the trunk.
i am moved each time i see these larger that life birds... giants yet graceful... powerful and yet gentle... proud and humble... a perfect reminder on this memorial day... that we honor who we are in every moment... as Americans.
good day...
