No one bothered you at either place? Were there many cars there? I'm surprised because of the restricted driving guideline put out by Oregon- thought maybe they would have Baskett gated off somehow. Hmm. The 4th picture has a bill like a shoveler but the coloration looks more like a Cinnamon Teal. Glad to see that the eagles are still hanging around.
No one bothered me at either place. A few cars at Ankeny and about 7-8 at Basket at the parking lot for hiking trails. There is no law in Oregon restricting travel. In fact hiking and jogging are specifically mentioned as being allowed. Social distance of at least 6 feet is required. The guideline is just that. It was prompted by too many people going to the beach and the beach being crowded. So the police have a tool to work with if people go to crowded places for recreational purposes only.
I too was pleased to see the eagles..
