Thanks Mike. Outside of the highly adaptable Red-tails, I have to admit, it’s still a bit unusual to me also. And getting more unusual. In recent years, Bald Eagles have been a regular sight along the lower Hudson River, with new park residents, Coopers and Sharp-shinned Hawks.

The big apple is not alone...

Washington D.C. is home to two known nesting pairs of bald eagles: Mr. President and the First Lady, who have lived in a tulip poplar at the National Arboretum for the past seven years, and Liberty and Justice, who moved into a tree above the D.C. Police Academy in Southwest DC around 2005.

EZ access to the Potomac River is pivotal here...
Rivers are the lifeblood of birds of prey...

Thank you for sharing Dave
