This pair of Bald Eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) seem to be in each other's line of sight as they search the horizons for prey.

An adult Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) monitors the field for prey as the moon rises over Holla Bend National Wildlife Refuge. The Bald Eagle can be seen near the top of the tree in the foreground.

This old homestead was once abandoned, but one may argue that the trees haven't. They are still active in watching over this home. Imagine the stories these trees could tell.
Near Eureka Springs, Arkansas.

Due to the intricacy of this spider web covered in morning dew, one can see many shapes and figures in this maze of water. One could see a vintage sailing ship. With the addition of dew, you can see the many dimensions of the spider web, hence the 3-D Dew title.
Comments welcome.

It takes patience and timing to successfully photograph a macro of a hover fly, especially while landed. Multiply the odds to actually catch two mating. I don't think I've shared this photo yet. I photographed this in 2010.
About 6,000 species in 200 genera have been described. Hoverflies are common throughout the world and can be found on all continents except Antarctica. Hoverflies are harmless to most other animals, despite their mimicry of stinging wasps and bees, a mimicry which serves to ward off predators.
