Wildlife lovers dream of capturing an image of a bald eagle in flight—let alone snapping an awesome shot of America's national bird on the Fourth of July.

Well, not a problem for Mark Zuckerberg.

The CEO of Facebook, who presides over a network of more than 2 billion people, is currently on vacation in Alaska with his wife Priscilla Chan, and he just happened to take a gorgeous shot of a bald eagle.

He shared the photo on Facebook, of course:

Are. You. Serious?

Apparently so. We don't think Zuckerberg would ever share something fraudulent on his network that is already plagued with fake news.

If the photo is authentic, guess we can just crown Zuckerberg the future president of the United States. Happy Fourth of July, Zuck!
