West Seattle Thursday: Development; music; art; wine …

Thanks to Bob Bussman for sharing photos of an eagle getting takeout at Lincoln Park. (Several WSB’ers have sent photos lately of eagles dining; a few were a bit gory.) We’ve added one more of his images at the end of this story. But first – here’s what’s on the events/activities menu today:

    Watch your small dogs, could end up a tasty meal for eagle chicks. One day last week, when walking(on leash) chihuahua near EC Hughes Park, a bald eagle kept circling above us until it realized the dog had a much bigger companion(me).

    I like how the second photo worked with depth of field and the Alki Lighthouse (or some post processing tricks–it looks nice).

Sorry, comment time is over.
