Hello, An adult Golden Eagle (escorted by a local Raven) passed low about 40 feet and caught a thermal right over our house here in Merrickville at 12: 40 p.m. this afternoon. It lingered for a minute before moving on. Brenda managed to get outside in time to have binocular filling views. "Yard" birds can hardly get any better than that!
Happy St. Patrick's Day! Good birding, Gerard Phillips and Brenda Carter.
