Hi All,
I would like to congratulate Ed & Michelle on the Bald Eagle sighting at Caney
Island Branch. That is one of the few confirmed sightings here in Buchanan
County.
The species does seem to be expanding its range, so it may eventually become
more common in the area.

My husband, Ed, and I saw a Bald Eagle this morning in the western section of
Buchanan County, specifically, Caney Island Branch. The mature bird was flying
high, but he was gracious enough to circle a couple of times for us before he
headed out of sight. A remarkable bird for this area. Other raptors included
five Red-tailed Hawks, a Sharp-shinned Hawk, two Cooper's Hawks, and a Turkey
Vulture.
We also saw two House Wrens on our hike, which are rare in this area, and a
Yellow-bellied Sapsucker. We saw a Swainson's Thrush and a Hermit Thrush, as
well as a Blue-headed Vireo and several Yellow-rumped Warblers.
