SBL Nature Trail - Eagles





































Took these pics yesterday (Tuesday).

Same eagles that have been around for years (I think) but I never got a good look at their nest before. It was in a different location last year. Although there may be another pair up the river a little ways since there were babies last year too. Could see the parent feeding the little one(s) - which you can see in the next pic below.


I'll try to go back tomorrow and see if I can get a better shot. I could of shot these at a higher resolution but forgot to change the camera setting at the time. Photo at left came out too blury too. Guess I was moving around or something. Below is river shot, with nest hanging over the happy hunting grounds. In the photo at top it looks like the big bird is feeding a fish (probably a fish) to the little one.























One more: Wednesday, May 21st.

veggies! 1st kohlrabi of the season. looks like peas w/ suck another season. : (

just a lot of lettuce so far for me (and rhubarb) but the rest of it is getting there. the only peas i ever had much luck with were snow peas, but they like cold so ya got to plant em real early in the spring. i planted some grape vines this year too - it'll be interesting to see what i get with that - so far so good.

peas may suck again. had 1st baby beans. yum. dammit, no more BIG kohlrabi! STRAWBERRY jam today. damn weather. wanna try rhubarb blueberry tarts,

the farmer said...

rhubarb blueberry tarts sound real good. or blue-barb pie. berries will be coming along pretty soon. no beans yet for me. need a day or two of steady soaking rain to jump start em.

blue berry pie w/ cranberries was the key. just blueberries is just not that good. EVEN BETTER, nectarine/peach/blueberry tarts, i HATE rhubarb strawberry. rhubarb raspberry might work. plum/blueberry is great too.

the pole beans are racing. no beans yet. but bush beans at farmers market. no peas yet. oh well.
