Activity is increasing. Here is a Bald Eagle

Hi guys,  my drive to the job site is beautiful.  Usually I can get a good look at a Greater Roadrunner, an American Kestrel, a Red Shouldered Hawk, or Brown Pelicans soaring.  The other day though I had an unexpected jolt!  Bald Eagle perched majestically looking over the ocean.  I got a few camera phone pictures, not too close, but the scene is dramatic!

I followed up with an eagle organization around here in SB, and we were able to identify the bird by tracking device and tag number.  This bird is part of the Santa Cruz Island colony, so this being on the mainland was really interesting, but not unheard of.  Pretty good way to start the day.

  1. Cool Matt, did you crash your car into an old lady's garden again when you saw it?
