moonrise and adult bald eagle over Jordan Lake
Katherine, aka Kate, matriarch of New Hope, in all her prowess and glory.
It started out a foggy morning! Wynd had figured out how to get up on the rim of the nest. Getting back down was expedited by the arrival of Petruchio. Wynd and Ice argued, with Wynd ultimately pushing Ice back into his side of the nest. See Slo-Mo of the argument in the video – link below.
Wynd does a funny Meerkat imitation. Petruchio brings straw for bedding and the chicks are quite disgusted that what dad brought wasn’t edible.

as I composed this shot, I found myself thinking of my great grandmother’s postcard collection
and then I realized that the eagle was also remembering…
Petruchio caught this large catfish at the north end of the cove. He is headed for the nest and the chicks.
