Walking west from the Royal Avenue parking area, I happened to put my scope on
the big fir trees on Gibson Island and was surprised to see a nearly full grown
Bald Eagle chick in a nest at the top of one of the firs. I hadn't noticed this
nest before. The nest is not visible from the platform. The nest near Shore
Lane is also active again this year with at least one chick.
Yesterday, a Caspian Tern that was roosting near Pelican Island in the Royal
observation platform pond, took flight to chase an adult Bald Eagle,
relentlessly dive-bombing until the eagle left the area. Hmmm... that was
interesting behavior.
No new migrants seen in the area today.
Good Birding,
