Description
An eagle perches in front of Mt. Susitna, by all appearances taking in the sunset view. Mt. Susitna, across Cook Inlet from Anchorage Alaska, is known in this area as "Sleeping Lady", because her profile looks like, well, a sleeping lady! That's her long hair trailing off to the left, and her legs to the right. My grandmother homesteaded by herself just this side of Sleeping Lady's ankles, where she had a small cabin and kept a dog sledding team.

The bird gives the image a great boost in this overwhelming landscape!

Thank you, Henk!! He refused to hang around long after I got my camera set up. Just a couple shots, then he was gone. :-)
