As we were driving back from the parade in Carbondale, CO, we spotted an American Bald Eagle. It was pretty far away, but I was still able to snap a photo. Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans 🇺🇸
Nearly crashed getting this photo. The driver was going very fast.

I do like the Claude interface better and the vibe of the answers feels better to me, but that’s all pretty subjective.
