It may be extremely cold and snowy in Calgary but it does provide some unique photo opportunities.
This was one of two adult eagles spotted on a walk along the Bow River. The eagle was congenial enough to allow for a few minutes of shots. It appears that somewhere along its journeys, the eagle picked up a small twig (with a frozen berry or two), probably while sitting in amongst a tree's branches. And with the frosty air, that little piece of frozen shrubbery looks like a crystal adornment on the magnificent white head.
It would take a braver soul than I to point out to a bald eagle that there is something amiss, particularly when being given the "eye"!
