Hi:

Around 4:30 p.m. I sighted a male and a female Belted Kingfisher about 20
yards North of the golf course bridge on the Green River. The male flew
across the river from a place about 10 feet from the female, and perched there
for just a short duration of time. He then changed perching positions on the
river by 50 or more yards several times while I watched him, never returning
to where the female was at. The female remained on a branch over the river
during a period of about 10 minutes while I was there. I don't know if this
is the same 'pair' I saw Thursday 4/2 or not, as they were about a quarter
mile downstream from my other Kingfisher observation.

A Bald Eagle was in a tall tree on the golf course about 500 yards North of
this same bridge. It was in about the same relative location, in the same
tree that I reported seeing 3 or 4 weeks ago. There was another Bald Eagle
soaring over an area just North and East of the golf course.
