Bald Eagle, Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, Eatonville, Washington State, USA, United States
Observing Captivity

Species: Bald Eagle | Location: Northwest Trek Wildlife Park, Eatonville, Washington State, USA, United States

While on a visit to the Northwest Trek wildlife park in Eatonville, Washington State, USA I spied this free (non-captive) mature bald eagle perched in a tree along horseshoe lake, just above the entrance to the tram ride which runs through the free range portion of the park. We had just exited the tram and I fired of several frames while walking back to the exhibits. This image was cropped in post to a square aspect ratio to emphasize the frame within a frame of the tree branches surrounding the bird.
