Doc Ellen’s Natural Minute 06/22/2022
Jordan Lake. Doc Ellen‘s Natural Minute brought to you through the generosity of Captain Doug and his expert helmsmanship. We came upon an Osprey family.

Two Fledgling Bald Eagles Playing
Jordan Lake. I was at the Jordan Lake Dam. Watching mostly ospreys. Then, along came this pair of fledgling bald eagles. The wind was nicely cool and just rough enough to really stir the two youngsters into action! They sure were having a good time.
