WV Nest 2-6 PM

In this first picture, Belle's head is to the left of dark body......

Looks like no one is there now.....

Eagle Nest at Patuxent 2-2-10

Surprise, surprise! When leaving for the day, appeared to be new sticks at top of nest, but was really an eagle!!!!

Eagles + 2-2-10 at PRP

It really is an eagle! If enlarged, can see some white...

Finally caught him on the osprey platform. Guess he didn't see me.....

When the eagles leave, the crows are right behind looking for nestovers!

Tired of Egg Sitting!

First NBG Egg

Nature Seen Jan. 29 & 30

Surprise! First sighting of Mr. Y-B Sapsucker yesterday......

Mrs. has been on here recently, but want to compare the red markings.....
From the road, the light oval patch at top right of the Park eagle nest looks deceptively like an eagle's head. But, NO. They did that so we'll be late punching the time clock!

This afternoon, saw Shorty eating the birds' suet, so took out some peanuts. It did the trick!

A pal joined Shorty~~~white-throated sparrow....

Local Screech Owl

Here's the Turner Screech Owl. I think they call him Camo! They sent me a picture taken through kitchen window of lady friend I work with who lives in Brandywine, MD.
