It will happen once in a while when the nest is on a site that I am not so certain about that times will give me a start. This day was one of those in that as I was taking my usual gentle stroll along the area near nest site, I must have stepped a foot past the acceptable boundaries. As I took the extra step, out of nowhere the female came swooping in with her broad wings and perched above me and gave me a glare from the nest as if to say...enough of that. I had gifted her with yet another road kill snake and she was not even grateful, in fact she was in process of removing a previous meal that she had neither fed to the Eyas, or herself, hmm what was up with that~
Beautiful pictures and post. I am in Birmingham right now, but heading home this afternoon. About the Lewis's woodpecker, I got several pictures of it and have some other interesting pictures I will post.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she got a bit fed up with those ready meals Mary and fancied a bit of home cooking. You got some fine pictures though showing lots of detail.
ReplyDeleteIck for the snake, but the photos and story are great!
