Tridelphia Reservoir, Montgomery County, 8 Jan 05, 1400-1500 

I stopped at Brighton Dam this afternoon with scope in hand to check out the
impressive numbers (several hundred) of Common Merganser on Trideldelphia
Reservoir.  Five Bald Eagle (3 adults/2 juveniles) were also on display.  I
observed one of the juvenile eagles swoop down on the surface of the water
with talons extended and fly off with a fish.  Pretty darn neat!
