In answer to Ed's question on limited sightings of bald eagles, not to worry! I'm seeing them active and just about every destination I've been to recently.

Mated pair of adults sitting side by side in large moss-covered tree which overhangs Ames Lk Rd and a creek. Their nest is nearby.

Pair of adults team fishing off Mercer Island on Lake Wash...dive-bombing and stealing a fish from waterfowl. First time observing fluttering of wings trying to hover and swoop down repeatedly almost like Osprey behavior.

Single perching adults here and there between Redmond and Mercer Island, near Marymoor, and along 520 bridge to Seattle.

Adult and juvie flying to perch near Luther Burbank on MI along the lake.

And other sightings, all in the last 2 weeks. Most this week.

News has it the pair near the Snoqualmie nest have been seen recently. Imagine the male and new female from last year are prepping their nest. Will be out there this week.



Cheers from Redmond,
