Flying past my livingroom window, heading in a SW direction. Wow, this is the third adult Bald Eagle I've seen this Summer. Always a thrilling sighting!

Maplewood Park. A pleasant surprise to see "Mom" hawk today. Baby #4 (small male) sitting on nearby branch surrounded by Nuthatches, Cardinals and Chickadees. He was sitting quietly then had enough and flew away.
Lake Wabukayne. A great mix of adults and juv. sitting on various branches in one tree.
Maplewood Park. Baby #1 (large female) sitting in crook of tree, tearing at something, swallowing pieces of meat - then a long string of ... intestines? (blech) Babies #2, 3 and 4 sitting on various tree branches. Earlier all 4 were flying through the woods, shrieking and squawking!
Maplewood Park. Thrilling morning from 8-9am ... all 4 babies flying around the South end of the park, landing on branches, standing on grass by fence, trying to catch squirrels - and having no luck. All 4 were flying through the woods, screeching and squawking plus making sounds similar to a human mumbling & grumbling. Beautiful streaking and gorgeous eyes! Baby #1 "The Big One" was perched on a branch out in the open and closed her eyes to have a nap. I truly wish I had a camera! Baby #2 standing on grass right next to a squirrel. The squirrel reached out with it's paw and swatted the hawk! The hawk took off. This has got to be one of the funniest things I've ever seen happen out in nature! Baby #3 and Baby #4 flying around in the woods having fun. It makes me feel great to see them all doing so well - all are very happy and healthy!
