The Pirate’s Bounty

December 10, 2017 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

The pirates rule on Union Bay. No one dares argue with their sharp talons and hooks. These marauding privateers take what they want – one way or the other.

There are two new, 2017 eaglets in the Broadmoor/520 nest. They are now nearly as large as these two eaglets from 2016. If you would like to see their progress you will want to visit:

Making Memories

February 18, 2017 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

354A5544Whenever eagles call it all sounds about the same to me. However, this week when Eva told Albert it was time to pay attention – his response was obvious and immediate. Maybe it is not what she says but how she says it. Clearly, it is all still a mystery to me. See more on:

Snow Day

February 10, 2017 by Larry Hubbell Leave a Comment

EB2R1009Monday was a definitely an unusual day for all of us. I went look for eagles and ended up encountering another species altogether. This bird was also primarily dark and light in her color scheme, with one flaming exception. I hope my photos brighten your day!

Aging Eagles

EB2R7730

This week’s post is not about ancient, near-sighted eagles in need of bifocals. It is about looking at immature eagles and figuring out how old they are. This week, I have seen at least five young eagles on Union Bay. To learn their various different age’s visit:
