The weather was nice enough to cooperate for our Third Tuesday of the Month walk at Laurel Hill this week, and the raptors obliged as well. Not only did we have five Bald Eagles, but we also had a Northern Harrier, a Red-tail or two, and a Peregrine ensconced in a nearby Osprey nest.
Thanks to all who participated!
