From Eaglewatcher volunteer Dave Templeton:
was at march’s point, on anacortes city limits saturday and saw this young eagle fly down the shoreline and jump on something. figured it was a duck. it was raining like crazy so just stuck the lens out the window and shot a few rounds. stopped to blow the image up and saw it was a crab! they’ll eat anything. looks like it scooped all the guts out but never did get into the claws. some fun.
