Bald Eagle

Majestic Eagle (number 1)

In my mind, there are few animals are majestic as bird of prey and among them the eagles are kings and queens. There are plenty of reasons why all sorts of eagle have been chosen in heraldry. The eagle with its keen eyes symbolized perspicacity, courage, strength and immortality, but is also considered "king of the skies" and messenger of the highest gods. Mythologically, it has been connected with Zeus/Jupiter and with Odin – the most powerful of the gods. This image depicts a bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), flying away after capturing a fish

Athene

The burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia) is a small, long-legged owl found throughout open landscapes of North and South America. Burrowing owls can be found in grasslands, rangelands, agricultural areas, deserts, or any other open dry area with low vegetation

Eastern Screech-Owl

The eastern screech owl or eastern screech-owl (Megascops asio) is a small owl that is relatively common in Eastern North America, from Mexico to Canada. There are two color variations referred to as "red or rufous morphs" and "gray morphs". This one is an adult red morph. They find security in certain pine trees and the colorful leaves of changing deciduous trees, whereas the gray morph owls camouflage better amongst the bark of deciduous trees. Eastern screech owls are strictly nocturnal, roosting during the day in cavities or next to tree trunks.

Looking For Shelter

The great egret (Ardea alba), also known as the common egret, large egret or great white egret or great white heron is a large, widely distributed egret, across most of the tropical and warmer temperate regions of the world. It builds tree nests in colonies close to water. Apart from size (up to 1 mwter/3.3 feet), the great egret can be distinguished from other white egrets by its yellow bill and black legs and feet, though the bill may become darker and the lower legs lighter in the breeding season. In breeding plumage, delicate ornamental feathers are borne on the back as seen in this photograph
