Subject:      Golden eagle

Yesterday after a day of birding at the International Horse Park
(including a brief look at the Bell's vireo Eric Boehm reported--
Congratulations, Eric!), Peter and I drove down Glenn St. for a quick look
at the surrounding area.  As we rounded a curve by the pond (about 1/4
mile east of Old Covington Hwy), we saw a GOLDEN EAGLE lift from the
ground and fly into the woods. We didn't get a great look at it or see it
again (despite waiting and searching), but as we walked the area, we saw
that it had been sitting on a dead dog by the side of the road.  Without a
doubt the biggest bird I've ever seen.
