This morning at Carver Park there was an adult Ferruginous Hawk that landed on
a tree along a horse trail that runs east/west from the dirt road north of King
Blind all the way to Grimm Rd. The Ferruginous landed about a mile west of
the King Blind road. He stayed briefly and then flew NW towards cty. rd. 11.
There was also an adult Golden Eagle that flew low nearby, and 2 possible
Golden Eagles on the ground on of a burned area south of Cty. Rd. 11 that I saw
at 45 mph with a car behind me. This area is just west of the turn off to the
nature center. Between 5:45 this morning and 10 I found 5 vireo, 5 thrush,
and 20 warbler species at Carver Park.
