This morning we went on an adventure....
In search of birds....
birds? you say...
yes...bald eagles to be exact.
Every year in Feb. the bald eagles come to Farmington Bay to nest. When it gets warmer they head north further. I always remember too late and the eagles are mostly gone...so this is what we found today...
this really pretty black bird with red and yellow on it, and it had the most beautiful song.
this is the same bird zoomed in!
We found 2 bald eagles chilling on this tree...
this is what we could see through the binoculars....:o)
We saw a total of about 10 bald eagles, tons of those black birds, ducks and seagulls, and several hawks. then on our way back our of the bird refuse we saw this one, on a tree right in this parking lot that we pulled into. so we were not far from the tree and it was at the top about 50 feet I would say. It was SOOOO cool to be that close! :o)
a little more zoomed in on little baldy - then a helicopter flew by and scared it off...
Freedom!
They are HUGE and BEAUTIFUL birds!
It was a successful adventure I would say! :o)
