Tower,

Posted on March 12, 2015 by cyetso

This is Ghost Rider requesting a flyby –

Negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full. Of course we all know what happened nest (and don’t BS me either, YOU ALL know).

So the young eagles were out playing in the sunny, afternoon breeze at Log Boom Park. And just like the movie, they proceeded to buzz the tower. And of course, whatever else they were inclined to buzz –

There’s a bunch more, I’ll get to them over the weekend.

It’s official

Posted on March 11, 2015 by cyetso

We’ve run out of trees. The parks department has taken to making them out of metal –

Or maybe, just maybe….
It’s ART?
I dunno, but if it is, I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that’s a bit of a reach.
Go out on a limb! Get it? I crack myself up.

Our old friend

Stalking a little morsel –

Stood like that for 10 minutes without moving a muscle. The most patient bird I’ve ever seen.

Youngster

Posted on February 24, 2015 by cyetso

On another of our beautiful ~~Summer~~ ~~Spring~~ WINTER days, I spotted this guy in the trees at Log Boom Park –

Just a youngster, not quite a full head of white, and the tail is just getting started –

And not for nothin, but I wouldn’t scratch my chin with those hooks attached to me fingers! You could easily lose an eye that way –

I suppose he or she knows what they’re doing….
Good looking bird. Keep your cats and small dogs inside, this one’s still growing….

Animal House

‘Off that ~~mailbox~~ signpost! That’s government property. Move it.’ –

Unlike in the movie, this bird was going nowhere. Unless he wanted too.
