Bald eagles really enjoy cold weather. They’re even happier if it’s a very windy cold weather day. On the left is the female bald eagle and on the right is her mate. They are both eager to get up and out and about and continue preparations for the breeding season.
It is the beginning of bald eagle breeding season at Jordan Lake. Captain Doug and I found this Dad bald eagle trying to work a branch into an area of the nest that needed repair before eggs could be safely laid. He is persistent!
