While vacationing in Williamsburg, VA the first week of August this year my 
family enjoyed a stop at Jamestown Settlement. This would mark our first visit 
to our nation's first permanent settlement. While watching the terns and gulls 
glide near the shore of the James River at the John Smith statue we were 
taken aback when two Bald Eagles flew over our heads at about 30 feet. Their 
seven 
foot wingspan caught more than our attention! We were reminded at that moment 
that we were glad to be birders and blessed to be an Americans!
