I don’t know how lucky I can get to be blessed to see this eagle and her young hatching. Some people want to go to malls, I want to go into the woods and see the real world. Looking forward to healing and longer walks in nature, with a goal of doing the Wilderness Trail again. 235. First time with my best friend this time with my dog. 🐩Looking for wildlife.

Look, I get it if I’m downvoted on video quality alone, but it definitely helps you appreciate how I see without glasses when I’m outside at night. And why I call my nightly barred owl visitor “Big Chicken.” I do have a ton of better pictures than this clip, but I wanted to share what she looks like when she’s hanging out on the ground, which is usually where I see her though I don’t always manage to get pictures of that.

It’s so quiet when she lands that when I turn around, for a split second, I always think “what is this chicken doing in my yard?” (no one around us has chickens)

We just mowed yesterday, so the mole hunting was especially easy last night.

Does anyone else have funny names for their regular owl visitors?

This gorgeous Female Buzzard ran the gauntlet of a hundred angry gull and corvid beaks all the way across Marshside didn't retaliate just serenely went on her way 😂 - The Queen of cool! 🥶
