To paraphrase Glenn Danzig from the Misfits punk anthem 'Where Eagles Dare'(1979)...."Work down the street at night. But live where eagles dare".
From the first morning that I moved into this house and watched a Bald Eagle fly by at eye level as I was eating a bowl of Tony Tiger, I realized that I would get some great eagle photo-ops. Now we just have to working on getting more photogenic fish into my photos.
I can almost imagine the eagle singing the first line of the chorus(which can't be printed here) in the aforementioned song while the steelhead joins in for the second line.

Together: "You'd better think about it, Baby" |
At my previous house I would only see Brown Thrashers once or twice a year if at all but here they have been present everyday since they arrived on April 20.

| Rose-breasted Grosbeak arrived April 29 |
 |
| Ruby-throated Hummingbird arrived May 1. |
Today I added 5 birds to the yard list bringing the total up to 88.
 |
| House Wren #84 |
 |
| Gray Catbird #85 |
 |
| Palm Warbler #86 |
 |
| Gadwall #87 |
Not pictured Common Yellowthroat #88.
Great shots Mark! The Rose-breasted Grosbeak is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThanks, things are really picking up. Hopefully the cool weather this week doesn't slow migration down too much.
