An Eagle or a Duck that is the question.

Interesting question isn't it?
They are both birds so why not?

Here is this Duck. It swam up to our boat and gave us a few "quacks", swam around us a few times. Figured that we weren't going to toss him anything so away he went, to the next boat. I had some thoughts right then but that's for another time.

So I looked over head and saw this Eagle soaring over us in the sky. There were several others as well but this one was a little closer. They cruised over the water and came just a little lower. I noticed that little fish were jumping all over the place.

Soon enough this Eagle puts his wings back and heads to the water, swoops down and graps a fish right out of the water with his powerful talons. Picked up the fish and flew away. I was totally awe-struck!!

I thought to myself that I wouldn't mind being that Eagle. I admired how sure he was and how he calculated that he was going to get that fish. He was patient and concentrated on what he wanted, then had the sharpness and strength to carry it off (the fish that is =0).

I knew at that point that I wanted to be that Eagle so much more than I wanted to be that Duck.
