Sunday was a amazing day for Bald Eagles!

My post Young Bald Eagle was the first sighting of this happening.

After the show was over Guy and I discussed what we saw!

The only thing we can determine (since we are not bird of prey specialists), is the the adult Bald Eagles were running off their young??

Or these young Bald Eagles were moving into the adult Bald Eagles territory??

It was a show of diving bombing, and very fast get a ways. Lake Billy Chinook is pretty much deserted at this time of the year but for a couple people.

We seen this show going on above the lake, then hopped in the truck and went up to the flats. Then they went back down to the lake and we did not finish the show!

I got all three in a shot but not worth showing.

I bet we could have been going back and forth for hours!! I do not jump out of this truck as well as I did the chevy HAHA!

As some may know our chevy finally gave up the ghost and we had to go buy another truck. We all loved the suburban (we called the the Steven King truck for windows would go up and down on their own and other such things HAHA), but we have to roll with the flow!

This is one of two Red Tailed Hawks (Chicken Hawk and known as other kinds of Hawks depending on where you live), that was following me Sunday down in the canyon where the Metolius River feeds into the canyon.

This one is young, does not have the red feathers yet, and/or I have never seen two species of hawks flying, perching together before. I am no bird of prey expert just my observations.

They were flying tree to tree keeping a very close eye on me! More then likely hoping I was going to scare up some dinner for them?

They stopped following me when the Bald Eagle I had my eye on took off flying to the other side of the canyon.

On another note, I do have some of my photographs at the gallery there in Madras Oregon as of today. More of this to come.

Young Bald Eagle

Young Bald Eagle

Sunday was the day we decided to go outside. Saturday it was storming and just to nasty!!

We got to see the neatest show we have yet to top down at the canyon.

We seen 6 Bald Eagles. I got shots of 5 of these 6. This is a immature Bald Eagle.

Not being a expert on eagles, I had to find a way to tell the difference between the Golden and Bald Eagle and I think I have finally found a way?

Knowing the Eagles are in our area and I seem to be getting a lot of photographs of them I am now going by the beak. Golden eagles do not have the golden beak.

Thus we take this information and apply it to this Eagle. That and we seen a show of two mature Bald Eagles who appear to be running off a young Bald Eagle and this is for another post. This young Bald Eagle was found near that show. Though this one was not being attacked as the other young Bald Eagle was.

I Am Central Oregon Sunset

This is from a local writer who just happens to still be in high school.

He has been writing now for years and just this year has gotten the confidence to go public.

This is his poem, with my central Oregon sunset photograph.

I Am

I am a writer

I wonder if my story will be published

I see so many good books

I am a writer

I feel happy when I write

I touch peoples hearts when they read what I write

I worry that I am not very good

I cry when I write people dying in my story

I am a writer

I understand that I must improve my writing

I say that I don't care what people think

I'm a good writer

I dream of seeing my books in stores

I try so hard to make my stories good and also touch peoples lives

I hope that I will someday see my stories on the big screen

I am a writer

I liked this buck for he was acting as if just another family man.

Being goofy in one photo, and being a proud papa in another.

He towered over the young ones, one of the photographs show this.

Not the biggest buck I have captured with the camera, just another one who had a lot of character!
