Raptor majesty, maybe

These two eagles were high above me on the North Beach bluff. So when I zoomed in, I thought, oh, good, majestic eagles! A pair!

Oh, um. More silly and derp and grumpy than majestic. They remind me of the Highlights cartoon, Goofus and Gallent. Though maybe this is Goofus and Grumpy. I guess eagles can be silly and grumpy too. They look more like siblings than a couple to me.

For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: raptor.

  1. All those adjectives like “majestic” are propaganda. Eagles in my experience are like to be goofy, grumpy, hungry, curious and big. I think of Ben Franklin in 1776. He called eagles scavengers and said the turkey should be our national bird. :D

      I thought they were mugging for the camera. Or else it’s a sibling successfully annoying another sibling.
