On Sat., Feb. 9 at Patuxent River Park, in early AM, the eagle nest appeared MT....
In the afternoon, probably Mom eagle was there. She kept watch toward her left and all of a sudden, another eagle flew straight toward us, made a U turn......
...and landed in the nest!!!! The light brown, blurry streaks show his approach!!...
Both together! He may have brought food, as her head went down into the nest......
On Tuesday, Feb. 12, finally got a picture of one of the juvies who must own this perch. It's visible, but pretty far away from the side of the Visitor's Center.....
Here's the Chelsea pond flock on Friday, 2-15. (Need to be enlarged)
Canada Geese are so organized, it's something to see. Except for initially flying into the water, they always walk single-file in and out of the pond, using their favorite paths! Here some are leaving for the grassy field behind the pond....
After seeing the flock, we got the Herd!!! (Need to enlarge these, too.) Deer started coming across the front yard field from left to right, same as these pictures were taken...
Near the center, most of the stags were together. There were about 6 or so.....
Some of the right side group. We counted about 26 in all!....
