morning visit with the bald eagle pair...

I started the morning early on the property, headed out between 7 & 7:30 AM.   As i entered the front end of the property the male eagle had just caught something in the river.... when i look at close ups from the front end of the property it appears to be a duck, as i can see the yellow beak, however when he arrives at the back end & flies over me it appears to be a muskrat.... so unsure if he ate the duck & then caught the muskrat & brought that to the female in the nest.... there were several magpies chasing him at the front end, & it took me awhile to get to the back where the nest is, so it is possible he had two catches this morning.
When he arrived at the nest with the meal, they made quite a bit of noise in their morning greeting!!!  (Please enjoy the slide show,both above & below... thanks

i found myself a nice rock to sit on by the rivers edge... kinda chilly & yet the morning sun offered some welcome warmth!  The eagle nest tree is to the left, morning sun to the right... this was my 180 degree view this morning!  When one goes into nature.. one never knows what to expect.... i had come out with the hopes of seeing some young raccoon's we'd seen the night before... did not spot them, however the eagle activity was very high!!
this is the 2nd year i have been allowed to observe them mating.... this is the first year i had my camera with me

And so begins the 2016-2017 season of the pair of nesting Bald Eagles on the property.... last year was the 1st season the had 3 hatchlings that grew up & flew the nest... it will be interesting what takes place this year. I am honored to be able to observe them the way I am.Thanks for joining me... hope you'll follow thru the season.

eagle update....
i will be headed out today to check out the eagle pair...
with the high wind storms our area received on a couple
different occasions this winter, the nesting tree was damaged
it lost a couple of branches... on fell over/on the nest....
i had been concerned because there is usually a bit more
activity from the pair in January ....
it appears they are actively repairing/rebuilding the nest....e
so unsure if this delays mating time or not....
last year the pair was blessed with 3 hatch-lings that all successfully
branched, flew & left the nest
it will be interesting to see what the 2016 season holds
for our pair of bald eagles....
pictures to follow....

thanks, molly/earthdeva
