Two wildlife biologists brought me a Golden Eagle inside a metal pipe.” Fast food containers are popular. “An So he brought the little Shearwater in a beehive.” “Two wrote Debbie Souza-Pappas in Utah. They were out in the field doing surveys and they found him. What are the odds? They had nothing else to put him in.”.

We admired the Bison in the frozen fields and saw a juvenile Golden Eagle which was both beautiful and a lifer for my hosts. After a pleasant morning with ducks, crisp snow and sunshine, we followed the wildlife trail on our way out. Our hopes on this second stop for the day were cruelly squashed as the feeders had little to offer.

We saw Common Gallinules , a nice male Rose-breasted Grosbeak , Bald Eagles , and a Great Horned Owl among the fifty-three species for our checklist. The long drive back to New York was filled by more lousy, incidental eBird checklists, more fast food, and more road kill. All was not lost though.

By the cliffs we find several Eurasian Crag-Martins and a consolation species – a family of Golden Eagles in the air! Eurasian Spoonbills are foraging, some of them literally running through the water chasing some fast food. That was my initial ID, it is a Clanga type eagle and the Lesser was the one I commonly find here.
