Saw this guy in a pasture across the road from Ankeny National Wildlife Refuge.  I was hoping for a bald eagle, this bad ass was a nice consolation prize.

I don't normally see a lot of wildlife at the Ankeny complex in Oregon aside from Canada geese (woohoo), but in winter it's a good spot for bald eagles.  I saw an American bittern in November, the first and only time I've ever seen one.  No pictures though, my card was full and  had left the spare in the car.  D'oh.

This pond is always pretty, even though there are normally only a few ducks on it.
