I had planned to go elsewhere this morning, but I decided on a quick trip to the bridge to see if my luck would improve. There were easily 5-6 eagles perched near the road, and they stayed in the area for a while.
Graeme and I then went to Quiet Waters, where we found a few more birds, but no ducks.
This Belted Kingfisher put on a show for us at Quiet Waters.
We flushed this Great Blue Heron, who stayed in the tree quite a while.
A lone Goldfinch was feeding in the cove.
There were about 10 Ring Billed Gulls feeding in the shallows at the bridge.
Walk west from the bridge and you may find Bald Eagles in the trees.
There’s no such thing as a ‘bad day’ with you, Hugh. You never fail to capture the beauty of the world you encounter. Thank you for your every reminder of how astonishing all the world is.
