Excellent photo! Appreciate that these magnificent raptors call Boston home.

I'm pretty sure this is quite rare having eagles this close to an urban environment. I could see them maybe hanging out at an active fishing port but just hanging out like this is in a park in the city is amazing.
Great picture!

The eagle stopped to read the park information plaques about native fish population in this part of the Neponset.

Or as the eagle calls them, "menus."
