Hello everyone! I have a bit of good news! Today, while at the Clark Cabin site at Falls of the Ohio, I finally observed two Eagles at the same time. One was on the nest, while the other was perched on a branch next to the nest. We can hope this means that Dad is doing his job! Here is a pic of the two of them! http://www.flickr.com/photos/14653045@N00/5552161290/in/photostream/ Also, in the area just above the falls (Ashland park area) I saw a raft of American White Pelicans! They would let the current carry them down until they were almost at the dam, then they would all fly up river just a bit, and somehow end up back in a bunch, and repeat the process! It was pretty early, so I don't know if they just spent the night with us or if they will be here awhile! Here is a link to the pics! http://www.flickr.com/photos/14653045@N00/5552101924/in/photostream/ I also watched the Osprey! He was working pretty hard, but it's hard to tell if he's making progress. I did see a couple of his branches fall right through the tower to the ground. Hopefully his mate will arrive soon and they can work on it together.
