It's pretty easy to get an eagle - even a wild one like this trained to come to laid out meat.



This was one of a pair of wild sea eagles but they knew when the crocs were being fed and there was a convenient tree branch for a chunk of chicken. Entertaining.

Thought I'd add a couple or three pictures from my neck of the woods.

One unimpressed-looking male Cardinal in the middle of winter


A pair of Mallard ducks that thought our ranch bungalow was nice enough last year


A pair of Mallard ducks that have gone more upscale this year

Love that puffed up cardinal in the green and white. Very nice.
