Perched within two feet or so from each other on a limb high in a sycamore at 
the up river tip of Cobb Island –seen from the riverside trail-were two, I should 
say, the two, mature bald eagles. -About 500 feet from the long established 
nest. The male to the right and considerably smaller than the female.  The 
sexual dimorphism is striking. They seemed comfortable with each other.

In the river buffleheads, ring-necked ducks, perhaps scaups, geese and 
mallards.
