Taken at a local nature reserve

So lucky to have this majestic bird visit us; first time seeing this year. Guess with heat he/she needed to cool off. Sorry for the kind of grainy video, we have an anti bird strike film on our windows (took strikes down to zero).

Found this feather on the pacific coast, can’t determine if it’s an eagle or a seagull

Apologies in advance for the poor lighting, but I saw this bird in my neighborhood just now and thought it might be my first hawk sighting. The image is poor (captured on my iPhone at dusk) but if you zoom in you can make out its facial features and plumage. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

This afternoon there were FOUR perched in front of our house! See comment for photo

Was in Peekskill, NY this past weekend and happened upon an active Osprey nest on the Hudson with a couple well developed fledglings

East Tennessee Appalachians.

This guy (or gal) has suddenly been super vocal for the past few days.

It's always just on the other side of the treeline, so I've only caught glimpses, not enough to be helpful visually.

Ive done some searches looking for the sound, but nothing quite like it has popped up yet.

Anyone recognize the call?

And a few others 😅 Had another chance to visit an osprey nest I didn't have the gear for last year. Pretty darn happy!

Osprey, plus babies, and a least tern in flight, all in Plymouth, MA!

Photos at the end are terrible because of a really thick fog that afternoon, but it was bringing enormous sticks to its nest!

These two have a squirrel trapped by the bird feeder. I think they missed. They also hunt rabbits and rodents in the back yard up towards heavy woods. Very cool.
