Part 4 of bird content from an “average morning” at Gull Point. Pictures with ‘stakes + rope’ = the roped-off trail at outer Gull Point for accessing the observation platforms, e.g., here w/ Spotted Sandpiper:
An Osprey either carrying nesting material or w/ something caught around its feet/talons:
An Osprey in a similar situation was seen on other days, so perhaps something was caught in its talons such as landscape fabric or lake vegetation or ?
Finally, a fun underside shot of a Bald Eagle (juvenile) harassed by an Eastern Kingbird:
The bald eagle being harassed looks like a scene from a scifi movie!
This Team Member was impressed by these photos whilst enjoying the new coffee maker at the HQ breakroom!
Yay coffee!
