This is the third or fourth consecutive winter that Bald Eagles have used
the trees at Kinder Gardens Nursery as a winter roost. Two years ago the
peak number was 19.

Subject: [Tweeters] Bald Eagle in Othello



While driving south on highway 17 this afternoon, having just left Othello,
we were surprised to see a pair of Bald Eagles flying north just as we were
approaching the Kinder Gardens farm. The one in the lead was a mature,
unmistakable baldy, while the second one, of the same size, must have been a
juvenile. Perhaps you see more of these birds in other areas, but I'm not
aware of many around Othello. It's the first time I remember seeing one
around here, but then with my frequent travels I'm not always around here
either. Perhaps they were just passing through. We turned around and went
back hoping for another view, but were not able to find them again.

Blessings,

Erik.
