#BirdOfTheDay #Raptors #Birds Image 1, 2021-05-16: This osprey pair put up this nest with a week of work. 2: Remnants of their old nest, knocked down by a wind gust 2021-05-08. 3: Egg shells 2021-05-08. 4: First sight of new young, 2021-07-26. Livingston MT, on a PHS football field light pole

Two osprey on football field lights pole crossbar, with jumble of sticks as a nest

Sticks (whitish) and finer bark-like stuff, brown, scattered on green grass, with several covid masks visible too -- remnants of blown-down osprey nest

Two broken osprey eggs, white on insides of shells, reddish brown on outsides, with some egg yolk visible too; on a background of green grass

Same light pole as in first image, but about 10 weeks later. Nest has much-more-visible structure. A small osprey's head is clearly visible at center, and an adult osprey, at right on top the nest. Probably a second young osprey head just left of adult.

Red-shouldered hawk seen against a backdrop of a big pile of coal.

Red-shouldered hawk is perched on a power line and looks stunning against the dark backdrop of a large pile of coal. Merlin says adult red-shouldered hawks are "beautiful with rich orange barring below and bold black-and-white checkerboard patterning on wings."

Northern hawk owl at Sax-Zim Bog.
Feb 21, 2019

Northern hawk owl perched at the top of an old snag.
Merlin describes this species as a,
"Unique medium-sized owl of the boreal forest. Remarkably long-tailed for an owl; reminiscent of a small hawk in flight with quick, snappy wingbeats. Pale eyes give it an angry look. Brownish overall with white spotting above, barred underparts, and spotted crown."

Don't let this juvenile Barred Owl fool you by it's awkward appearance. Look close at it's beak and you can see dried blood from a recent meal.

A juvenile Barred Owl stands on a large tree limb. It's legs are fully visible.

#BigBear bald eagles. After #Shadow & Kaydee shared the dawn, they each went their own way. Shadow stayed in camera view for much of the day. We were lucky to enjoy some quiet time with him.

Sydney #White-BelliedSeaEagles. SE38 has come into his own at last, turning into quite a character. He's also often first to Lady's beak for meals. He and sibling SE37 have reach detente.
