Eagle Eating a Squirrel


I took this photo at Dickinson College’s campus lawn. I remember it was on a Sunday afternoon, after my shift at the media center was over, I walked out of the building and started walking towards my apartment on West Louther Street, where I saw a bald eagle feast on a squirrel. I got too excited and ran to the media center to grab the cameras. This photo and many more photos I took literally from three feet away. The eagle did not pay attention to me at all. I think either the eagle was too brave, or used to humans or too hungry to be distracted from its food.
