Bald Eagle

A day out at Chatsworth on one of their special days opened my eyes to lifestyles during Tudor times. It was a cracking day out, and they had put on a lot of high-quality events and attractions. One of them was a bird of prey display. There were a few birds, but this was the best by far.

The guy running the display picked it up and it just flew off and up onto the roof of the house itself. Great, because there was a photographer up there and it landed about 2m from him. We could see from the ground that he had more than a fright!

When it came back, it swooped a few feet over our heads. Very cool.
