Have you ever attempted to visit Marsh or Foster Islands in the Spring? Did you happen to find the trail submerged beneath the rising waters of Lake Washington? This issue and others could be addressed if there is enough public support for the project. Follow the link below to read more and find out where to send your email. Thank you!

July 11, 2015 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

EB2R1332The young 520 eagles in the Broadmoor nest are growing up quickly. The nest and the nesting tree are quickly getting too small to hold them. The young eagles are even starting to get on each others nerves. Read the story and see the photos on:

Predator or Prey

July 20, 2014 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

EB2R1064This week’s post covers a half a dozen birds of prey photographed around Union Bay. One of them is this young Barred Owl from the Arboretum. The owl shows us that it has learned find its own food. Actually, if you look closely at the photo above you can see a tiny bit of proof. Can you guess which other predators were photographed? To see more about who is eating and what is on the menu please visit Union Bay Watch.
