Description
This young Eagle perched for a very long preening session on a stump. The tide waters completely surrounded it. The young groomer lost ground. Reminds one of how nature can mirror the human reality and the story of the Eagle in Aesop's Fables.
The lesson: We are all "groomers" when we fixate on the details while the world changes around us.
