American Bald Eagle
My husband's class saw 21 Bald Eagles during a recent field trip to the Susquehanna River in Harford County, Maryland. Amazing !
I wasn't able to download photos from the field trip because they were too large for the blog. So I found this photo taken at Octoraro, Maryland. This and other local eagle photos can be found at farm1.static.flickr or just google images of eagles in Maryland.

The Walters is free. Check out the museum website.
