Shooting skeet at the local gun club, I was up first, just as I was ready to call for the first bird, a pair of eagles started looping over the field.
Just lazy circles, riding the thermals about 150 feet in front of the field, about 200 feet up. Just loop after loop after loop, 100-200 foot diameter circles.
I pulled the gun down and we just stood there and watched them, the other skeet field went quiet too, guess they were watching just like us.
After a minute or two we started shooting, never bothered the eagles, they just slowly drifted away riding the thermals. If they flapped their wings more than 1 or twice a minute I'd be surprised.
We see them regularly at the gun club, not very often a pair in that close. A lot of singles swooping by. Must have been something in the weeds out further that looked like dinner to them.
