Bald Eagle Quest

Our dear friends Brad and Michelle Parkinson live near the Teton River and they are kind enough to board our horses.  Behind their property and next to the river is a large tree with an eagle's nest.  Over the years we have often seen bald eagles coming and going.  Isaac has a particular fascination with birds of prey, including eagles, hawks, falcons, and owls.  We decided to take advantage of a sunny afternoon and make a quest to see the bald eagles up close and personal.  Along the way, we hoped to see other wildlife, and in particular a bobcat we have glimpsed in the past.  Regarding the eagles, we were not disappointed.  As for the bobcat, we saw tons of tracks of some kind of cat, but no actual sightings.  Here are a few pictures of our adventure.

Isaac is on to some tracks!
