2 Upstate NY Eagles in one week
« on: February 16, 2013, 11:11:59 AM »
I've owned my Eagle almost 4 years now and have taken it all over the country but have haven't seen a single other Eagle on the road until this week and I've spotted 2! First was either a white or tan wagon possibly with wood paneling headed south to PA and the other was a really good looking black Eagle both wagons and both drivers waved. :blob1:

Didn't get a chance to snap photos of the first Eagle but here's the wagon I spotted yesterday in Endicott, NY...Mine is the very dirty one with no roof rack cross bars.

That's pretty sweet.  I'm 26 and lived in upstate NY until last year, and I had NEVER seen an eagle before I got mine.  I spent a year in Alfred and 3 years in Rochester for school too.

One of these days I'm planning on making it to that M&G. Should be Eagle Ecstasy to see so many in one place!

I hear ya, until this past week the only other ones I've ever seen out here have either been in the boneyard or on the way to the boneyard

Ran into the tan one again and this time I had the camera handy
