Happy Valentine’s Day! The pair of Bald Eagles were in the nest last evening. Watching with my scope from my living room window, I could tell they were eating prey they had captured. Would love to know what it was. All I could see was the birds tearing & pulling at something and swallowing.

This morning one of them was carrying a large branch around in the nest trying to arrange it properly. Sometime this week (going by my notes from last year), they should lay egg(s) and begin incubating.

Male Red-wing Blackbirds are back! I heard a couple calling yesterday afternoon. Good to have them back.
