Forward facing raptors? How ‘bout Sunny and Gizmo, Jackie and Shadow’s eaglets at Big Bear Valley.

Haku & MV spent the afternoon on/near the nest, together & then apart. All that time, it seemed there was a connection. Probably my imagination. A duet of chortles made a nice finale.

On the Santa Cruz Island nest of Andor & Cruz, the two fledglings, Kaimana & Blue, begin most mornings squeeing to welcome the day. Soon everyone is singing. A little dose of eaglet joy.

This eagle ate lead fragments that leached lead into its bloodstream, becoming a deadly neurotoxin. Tamarack WL Ctr did what they could, but the eagle died. Hunters, please consider switching to lead-free ammunition. Or, bury gut piles & dispatched animals to keep them out of the food chain. #birds
