The Bald Eagle. Gold and Silver Tribute

in #steemsilvergold7 years ago (edited)

Few images are as powerful as a bald eagle in flight. They're the king of the raptors, the symbol of freedom and also the animal that best represents natures beauty and grace.

The eagle is also the symbol of America. It's prominently featured on the most popular silver bullion coin in the world

Power, grace and freedom are three words that immediately come to mind when I think of this animal.

I thought I'd share a few pics I found from pixabay and also a few pieces I have in my collection that prominently feature this amazing bird of prey

Eagles are apex predators. They don't have any threat to their existence except for man destroying their habitat. Kinda sad we have such a clear affinity for them but we still negatively effect thier livelihood.

I did read their numbers have been improving in North America and they've been delisted as a threatened species. I wanted to end this with some good news 😊

Eagles are magnificent bird. Love to see them glide in the sky.
Thanks for sharing.

Thx @jackpot for the words and the view. Where I live they have nests in the power towers, theyre often relocated by the power company. I think it's awesome they do that for them. I can also walk to a place nearby and if I'm lucky watch them pluck fish out of the water and fly off. The only bad part is they often take people's outdoor cats away and eat them 😱

I love this post the pictures of the eagle . Eagles are so beautiful thank you for sharing going to start following you @mannyfig

Some pretty sweet eagle pics! Also some nice eagle silver in your stack.

Eagles are the best. I want to come back as one when I die 😊

Any eagle coin is beautiful you showed some nice ones

Definately one of my favorite animals. Thx for taking a look KK 👊😎

These are absolutely the most majestic birds, with all their strength and agility.
Thanks for posting this.

My pleasure, more thx for stopping by. Welcome to #teamcanada btw. I'd love to see a post about where you're at now and why u left?

I wrote a silly adventure that sort of sums up why we moved (A Mouse Tail) but thanks to the inspiration and encouragement of some other steemins, I am in process of writing a complete account up to the present. I need to figure out how to use the team Canada logo to my posts. I'm such an ameoba when it comes to everything new...

Just hold down or click on the image and save it my friend. Then when u make your post select it from wherever u saved it..

Thank you. That should be easy for an old dog like me...

Beautiful bird, beautiful pieces, GA, dude man.

Thx silverarms 😁 look at u bud you're almost at 60! Tell me something my friend from tiltcove, what's the rep even about or good for?

The higher your rep score, the more likely people will follow you and upvote your stuff.

So that's it huh? I got like 400 following and about 4 ppl that watch my posts 😝

It'll get harder and harder to get noticed now with more people flocking to Steemit, but I would say you are much higher up than the average Steemit user. HAve you played around with the Steemwhales.com page?

No bud, this is the first I've heard of it

My favorite is the one dollar. Got a nice stack of'em.

They're a staple, gotta have em up in the stack. I'm more a maple guy just because I'm from Canada. Thanks for checking out my post @islandliving

Shame about the swan :-( They must be massive if they can take a swan down. Great pics and some very nice coins

Is it a swan or a goose? Either way that's just a big meal for an eagle. They carry young goats away and drop em off cliffs to kill em. Have u seen those vids on YouTube? Just amazing, I feel bad for the goats but the eagle is a smart and efficient killer

Yep i think your right its a goose, We have golden eagles that use similar tactics on deer up in scotland. I spend far to much time on computers as it is , i'll content myself with watching the local sparrowhawk chase down a starling or two in the back garden

Haha that'll have to do. Have the best night Geordie

Beautiful. resteemed!

There's my homegirl! Thx for the look and RS. Stay classy @annoyblog
