Driving to work at the intersection of Rainier Avenue South and South Jackson Street, I spotted a beautiful bald eagle circling a couple apartment buildings in South King Street area. It was originally perched on one of the building about a block from where I was sitting at a stoplight. Suddenly, it dropped off the building and began catching the updrafts in a circle around this area. 🦅
