I absolutely adore Bald Eagles. I saw one when I went to my first time at the zoo. It looked fake, like a plastic shaped Bald Eagle, as it was not moving at all. Then suddenly, it flapped its wings and gave a small blink at me, and then stood motionless once again. I was baffled at this beautiful creature. I had never before seen one up close. I stared into its beautiful yellow eyes as it stared back into mine. I felt like touching it and letting it perch on my arm, but it was locked up and would surely not like me, at least I thought so. I had to be pulled away by my family, though I dearly wanted to stay with that gorgeous creature. My second trip to a zoo (I have only been to two), I saw two beautiful Bald Eagles perched separately in the trees up high. They sat motionless and beautiful, so radiant and dashing. I stared longingly at them, but soon had to leave. So beautiful and dazzling this creature of the air is. The bald Eagle, flying free with its head held up high to face the world. |
