A great capture for this mature eagle.  Many times, once the fish is caught, it will be stolen from another savvy eagle mid flight, or it will land in a tree with its prize only to accidentally drop it to the ground.  Last eagle pic for sure:)

An interesting find, this is a M103 heavy tank from the 1950s that has found a permanent home since the 1960s on Credit Island.  Credit Island is has a nice driving loop overlooking the Mississippi River.  It is great for walking, running, and biking as well.  There is a disk golf course available.  This is a great area to do some bird watching year round as well.
Another sun-bathing beauty:)
Just off of Credit Island paddling up-stream, the Mississippi River offers an urban/suburban experience on the water.  Other than water sports, this area has a very nice bike/walk path that follows the river right into Davenport.
