I went up here today to check them out, and let me say, these are magnificent creatures. Up to a 7 foot wingspan, 12 lbs and 3 feet long, they are some of the biggest birds I've ever seen in flight. Flight is an understatement, when they get up and going, they soar like hawks and falcons, effortlessly tipping their wings to catch thermals and swoop and dive - almost like they are playing. Simply awesome! I saw 5 or 6 different ones, they are kind of hard to spot. I plan on going back early in the morning sometime in the next few days with my tripod to see if I can get some better pics and watch them fish in the lake.

My pics didn't come out the greatest (digital camera through a telescope) but a couple are ok. Enjoy!
