This is My Lunch!

Teresa and I drove up to Grand Lake Saint Marys this week. While we were hiking along the west side of the lake, we saw this Cooper’s hawk take down a small bird. Natures cycle of life, I guess.

Shortly after I took this photo, she flew off, with lunch. It was almost more than she could carry, but she made it.

Osprey

I was really excited when I saw this Osprey flying at Kiser Lake. Their diet is 100% fish, so I should not have been so surprised. When we fist saw her, I thought it was a hawk, but as we watched, and I capture this photo, I could tell we were looking at something different. I have only photographed one other Osprey prior to this photo. Very cool.

Bald Eagles in Ohio

I read a really interesting article in the Urbana Daily Citizen this week. Here is a link:

Ohio’s bald eagle nesting season underway

According to the article, there was only four bald eagles in Ohio in 1979. Today, 286 are nesting in Ohio, and 445 eaglets. That’s so cool.

The photo above is of an eagles nest just south of Piqua. I took this two days ago. I believe we will have young eagles in two to three weeks. Last year this couple produced two offspring. How cool is that.

Brave Hawk or Napping Eagles

I photographed this hawk a couple of days ago while she was hunting over a large open field. There is nothing unusual about this photo, other than the fact that this hawk was hunting about 50 feet from an eagles nest. The last photo is the nest. Clearly, the eagles were not here, but they sound be soon. Brave hawk or napping eagles ...

And if you are still reading .... I had some good news yesterday. I had my bi-annual PSA test, and I am still cancer free. Made my day!
