more eagles

I was working in Sequim today, and rather than going for a walk at lunchtime, I felt like going for a drive and listening to music. I haven't explored the northern side of Sequim much, near the straight. So, the drive was meandering in that general direction. I came upon a spit of land that sits just south of the Dungeness spit, which allowed a brief time onto the beach and a smell of salty, sea air.

Coming up from the spit, I saw 2 eagles perched at the top of a tree, serenely sitting, looking toward the water. These are the 7th eagles I have seen in the last week-and-a-half, prompting a look at eagle symbolism. It seems that most cultures are intrigued by them as I have been by the recent sightings.
