Jordan Lake. Oh my. I looked up and across the Haw River, at the dam, and what did I see? I do believe it is a female long-leg leaf bear! Least ways, I think that’s what it is… But then… sometimes Doc Ellen‘s imagination gets well used… Hope you enjoy the new species!

Jordan Lake: Great blue herons enjoy the occasional meal of American eel. I wondered if this was the fledgling’s first taste of eel. #AmericanEel #Eel #GreatBlueHeron




Jordan Lake: The rugged intent face and well-tested frame of this female bald eagle somehow carries more of an impact to my eyes than just the contrast of white and darkest brown … there comes a sensing of vibrant life inhaled with the air the raptor breathes.

Jordan Lake. This morning the ospreys helped sing the sun up into the sky. Have a very blessed day!
Jordan Lake. This morning we have a song between an American crow or two and an osprey fledgling who really wants breakfast. However, the parents are practicing patience and hoping the fledgling will go and try to get it’s own breakfast first. Have a blessed day, take care, be safe and cool.
