While boating on the hood canal we saw HUNDREDS of eagles dining on crabs during the low tide. I have NEVER seen so many eagles at one time.
Crab season is open

On a mission
This baldy was in search of yummy dungeness crab during the low tide.
Faraway Friday-Alaska
Mirror mirror on the wall who’s the prettiest bird of all…
This baldy seemed to be admiring himself in the puddle reflection. I didn’t quite get that in my timing of the shot. I was on a VERY BOUNCY boat (9-12ft swells) in Homer AK.
Oh Deer!
While riding on the ODT with my WOW (women on wheels) group. We saw this Baldy up close eating the remnants of a fawn. Most likely a cayote took it down originally.
We’re back!
My eagle pair are back and nest building. This was on a branch right near my window. He was looking for a tasty fish or duck for lunch.
“my” Eagle
I’ll share him with you (often). He comes to the branch of this tree just outside my window almost daily. I know its a he, because males are smaller and his mate is usually flying with him or nearby.
Dungeness Hunting Grounds
THis eagle would fly by low and then dip into the grass over and over. I thought it wa missing its prey…but when I zoomed in I realized that each time it had a small mouse or vol in its talons that it quickly ate before diving again.
