Date of sighting: August 5th

After a productive morning scouring County Park with the 8:00 a.m. field trip, I looked up from the parking lot and noticed a kettle of California Gulls literally careening back down to earth. Turns out it was to evade an adult Golden Eagle blasting by in the direction of Conway. All in all a very predatory day at County Park: two young Cooper’s Hawks, three Red Tails and the Kestrel Family were keeping the new fledgling Warbling Vireo on its toes.
