My favorite bird is the eagle because it is so majestic and flies the highest. To me, like the Native Americans, it represents the Great Spirit. I have written several poems about the eagle and the title of my fourth booklet is called Return of the Eagle: Poems and Stories of Higher Consciousness and my first book Return of The Eagle: Poems with Their Stories of Higher Consciousness (published 2019). The eyes of an eagle are so penetrating and they can spot their prey at great distances. The eagle below was taken at the Birds of Prey Show at Stone Zoo in Stoneham MA. Also shown is a photo with the head cropped (on the cover of the book) and a side view done in Photoshop Elements 100% saturation.
