CAUTION - IN COMING

Environmentalists claim that the Bald Eagle is becoming extinct.

Maybe in California, but they don't seem to have counted the ones in B. C.

Many a fisherman can tell you a tale of the one that got away - stolen off their line by an eagle.

Or the one that didn't get away because he had tackle stronger than the eagle.
