Jordan Lake. The calendar says it is spring. The wind out here is trying to convince me otherwise! Enjoy the ruffle of the lake as it brings to us thoughts of warmer weather to come. Have a blessed day, take care, be safe.

AuthorTwo Bald Eagle Chicks!
Jordan Lake: H&G nest. Happiness and joy! There are TWO chicks at Hershey and Godiva’s nest. I was sure glad to see them both.

Jordan Lake: How about, instead of feathers, I share this cute furry little guy? I do believe, if iNaturalist figured it out correctly, this is a Hispid cotton rat. Cute as he could be. Size would about fill my hand – he is a small rodent. I just never know what friend of the Jordan Lake Neighborhood I will meet on a morning’s walk.
Hershey Says NO to a Yearling Bald Eagle
Jordan Lake. H&G nest. First photo: bald eagle up top is a 1-1.5 year-old bald eagle that got way too close to Dad Hershey‘s nest. Dad Hershey promptly told the youngster that it could not stay in his space. Didn’t take long for that youngster to turn around and head out!







Chick Supervision?
Jordan Lake. H&G nest. Dad Hershey had been repairing the left-hand end of the nest. Rearranging sticks – nest upkeep is a never-ending task for most parent raptors. I did not realize his chick was supervising until dad got distracted and jumped up and out of the nest. Now, like the chick, I am wondering just what did Dad Hershey see!
