Stopped by the Ridgefield Park Bald Eagle nest twice this morning, viewing it from across Overpeck Creek.

No activity on the first visit, but saw two immature birds preening near the nest on the second trip. (Photo above gives you a sense of where they were perched.)

Also saw hundreds of Common Mergs in the creek.

Monk Parakeet nest site along Railroad Avenue was quiet — just heard (and then saw)  three parakeets fly by the nest and perch on a distant utility pole.  They apparently head out to forage very early in the a.m.

Skeetkill Marsh (below) was even quieter — just a few of the usual suspects (Canada Geese, Mallards, gulls and sparrows).
