Day before yesterday - mature bald eagle soaring over BJ's Wholesale Club in Rotterdam.
Three days ago - Northern Harrier hunting over a field near the intersection of routes 30 and 20 in Esperance. This bird seems to be a regular there this winter.
Four days ago - Juvenile Cooper's Hawk walking on the ground for several minutes near our back yard bird feeders. It was looking around as if it had lost a contact lens. Any thoughts on this behavior? Do they scavenge if they're hungry enough?
