Eagle Withdraws
I think I have gotten over eagle withdraw, it has been about a week since I have spotted the birds, this morning I saw no signs of the eagles, just a lot of deer, turkeys, and a hawk. I think it is pretty safe to say the 2011 eagle season has came to an end. This was my first completely full season and what a season it was. I started at the end of the 2009 season, and all of 2010 up until the unexpected early end with the death of the babies. I have learned way more about eagles than I would ever had thought possible. I have even learned a thing or two about photography. I have also made a lot of human friends as well, most who are just as nutty as I am when it comes to this crazy hobby. Hopefully, I will be around to get a few pics next year as well. I am sure the eagles will return, if nothing happens to one of them. I am working on a post of the whole year in review with some unseen pics, but there is a lot of stuff to sift through so I don’t know what the time frame is on posting it.
I will continue to post pictures of things I find interesting (could be anything), but probably not as frequent as I have been, so check back from time to time. Shiloheaglepics will continue on, but don’t look for a lot of eagles pics until early 2012.

I want to thank you so much, I have enjoyed the 2011 eagle blog throughout the year, but I am enjoying your photos of all the animals, just as much. I live in Tennessee but do not get to travel anymore. So this computer has become my eyes to the world. But I especially love the Tennessee photos the best though all are enjoyable. I even keep up with the Elephant Sanctuary, and the elephants are usually no shows. Again thank you kindly.
