An Incredible Sight: Bald Eagle at Squam Lake
As an established real estate agent who has specialized on Squam Lake in NH for a large part of my career, every now and again we see something that just surprises and amazes us - and it happened this past week! Last Sunday, I was visiting with some friends on their screen porch and enjoying the peace and quiet of Bean Cove on Squam. It's a special place and the only sound we could hear were the songs of the two Loons sitting and fishing in front of the lodge. But then, out of nowhere, a bald eagle swooped down to get his share of the fish. What an incredible sight to witness! I was telling another friend, that in all my time on Squam, I have never seen a Bald Eagle, and certainly not one fishing! Squam Lake - full of wonder & beauty!
