Jordan Lake. The first time I saw a female osprey my mind said “Empress“. There is something about the mind set and obvious command pulsing from an adult female osprey that brings that imagery of royalty to me. Enjoy this Empress of Jordan Lake.

Before I left home this morning, I had looked at the weather forecast. I arrived at the lake before sunrise this morning, knowing it was going to be a very hot day, once again! The rising sun sure seemed to emphasize the coming heat. Take care, be safe. Stay cool.

Jordan Lake: Bald eagle pairs stay close by their nest and close together all year. This mated pair gives you a chance to see the huge gender size difference in bald eagles. That is mom eagle (females are ALWAYS bigger) on the right and dad bald eagle on the left.
