Jordan Lake, It goes without saying, I do believe, that this is one very blustery autumn morning. Enjoy the briskness of the lake! Take care, be safe. Stay very warm.

First Nest Bald Eagle report

By neighdoctor November 16, 2021 First Nest Bald Eagle report

Jordan Lake: Kate and Petruchio, like all bald eagle mated couples, go through the rituals of courtship every year as a way to affirm their relationship. Here you can see Petruchio (closest to you) and next to him is Kate. They are talking loudly to each other… bald eagles love to chatter! Also note that Kate (as is true of all bald eagle females) is much larger than Petruchio. This is the beginning of this year‘s courtship. I surely hope that I can catch more of the sequence to share, but, only time will tell us that…

Doc Ellen’s GoFundMe Update

I watched the shadow of me, camera in hand, against the bright autumn morning of Jordan Lake. Considered briefly the shadow of the long ago accident and then smiled within the light of lake and each of your expressions of thoughtfulness and caring. The sharing of the Jordan Lake Neighborhood with all of you has continued to lift my spirit and helps me cope daily with my crabby left arm. My thanks to all of you for your ongoing support and contributions to my GoFundMe campaign as together we work toward the goal of new photography equipment. I am looking forward to sharing more of Jordan Lake, its birds and its ever changing story with each of you.
Peace and grace, Doc Ellen

Jordan Lake: Quite a bright and breezy autumn natural minute! It is neat to watch the beautiful leaves dancing in the wind and listen to the sound of the lake and a noisy crow. Take care, be safe. Stay well!
