I was just outside, raking the lawn, and thinking of Laura's eagles. So I came in to get my binos just in case. Back outside, I had just picked up the rake, and looking up, saw a beautiful juvenile GOLDEN EAGLE!!! gliding low, on a straight line, to the northeast, right over the house. Binos not even needed. Back outside? Me too. Me too.

(east of Ithaca) this beautiful Saturday afternoon (1:30) were two very cooperative, low flying, slowly circling GOLDEN EAGLES, flying over within 10 minutes of each other. Also seen between 12 and 1:30 were 3 TURKEY VULTURES, 2 NORTHERN HARRIERS, 2 KILLDEER, 1 RAVEN, and 2 local RED-TAILED HAWKS. A (the?) pair of RED SHOULDERED HAWKS have been in the area since last weekend. Gotta get back out there!
