Eagle lunching with two crows

I have been checking on my brothers place twice a day while the boys are at work.  We already have things on trailers that are covered, but not put in any of the buildings. That is because they are full.  So I go over just to make sure people see that there is someone there.  There are also cars parked there to deter anyone from stopping.  Anyway, I got a chance to see this eagle eating on a dead deer carcass.  When I was growing up on that corner at our home place there were no eagles.  Now that DDT has been outlawed I have seen more eagles in the area.  DDT was passed along the food chain from fish and other organisms to bald eagles. That concentrated the chemicals in their bodies, causing their eggshells to become so thin that routine incubation crushed the eggs.  The recovery of the bald eagle began in the early 1960's in the Chippewa National Forest in north central Minnesota. United States Forest Service biologist John Mathisen became nationally recognized for his pioneering efforts to save nesting eagle populations. The U.S. Forest Service prepared individual management plans for every eagle breeding area on the Chippewa National Forest. These now number 144.
