The Editor,
I want Richmond wildlife lovers to know that I spotted four eagles today at No. 3 Road and Williams while waiting for the bus — a phenomenal sight!
The first two were close together, flying in low circles. Then, a third eagle was there, but quite a distance from the other two. They were “talking” a lot, and then a fourth one appeared.
While this was happening, a grandfather and his baby grandson were walking down the road. It was really exciting because the baby picked up on the eagle sounds — kept looking to the left where the birds were flying. Granddad finally looked over, but didn’t look high enough — just saw the cars on the road. The baby was so into this!
And, then, the third eagle flew west into the soon to be sunset; the fourth eagle gained enormous altitude and headed the same way, and then the other two went that way also.
I felt so blessed to see these beautiful animals today — and I think the grandbaby was blessed too, very excited and inspired.
