Looks like the scarecrow’s losing his stuffing! I never thought they would carry a clump of grass like that. Usually they have large branches.

A fine behavior capture of the eagle carrying nesting material, Jake. The open beak is a treat.

But is the eagle a firestarter like Kim posted about the raptors in Australia recently under Photography Topics? Sure looks like it to me with all that tinder! Hmmm!
