Red Shouldered Hawk

Red Shouldered Hawk is one of my favorite hawks. This bird is seen sitting on power poles near Sardine Cr and Hwy 234 intersection near Gold Hill, Or.

Bald Eagles

While out scouting the Agate Lake area today, getting ready for the Christmas bid count Dec. 19th, We were lucky enough to see 3 Bald Eagles and one Golden Eagle juvenile. Every time I see one of these magnificent birds I am amazed. I have been lucky enough to get a few good pictures which I would like to share.

Klamath Refuge Fall Visit

Had a beautiful fall visit to the Klamath and Tulelake Refuges.  The Fall colors were amazing.

Lots of ducks and geese starting to show up. We counted a total of about 45 Sandhill Cranes in 4 different places.

A Northern Harrier show us a great view of his tail light.

The  Petroglyphs and their history near Tulelake were really interesting.

A Rock Wren came to check us out while we were at the Petroglyphs.

Back at it again

Trying to take a little more time to blog again.

Say’s Phoebe

I had a beautiful birding drive to Agate Lake this morning. The fall colors were amazing after the rain showers. Many different types of water fowl are starting to become abundant again along the Rogue RIver and in several ponds. The best birds of the day were the Say’s Phoebe at Agate Lake and the Hermit Thrush near Gold REy Dam on the Rogue RIver.

Peregrine Falcon

 While visiting Agate Lake October 5th I saw my first fall Peregrine Falcon at the back of the lake sitting in the dead tree that is in the parking lot. Beautiful bird.

Sept 6th Birding

  

I did my usual birding loop to Agate Lake and back with Comet.

Creatures

I guess I need to post a few of my favorite Southern Oregon creature pictures. Lizzards, butterflies, squirrels, and dragon flies – Oh My!
