Roadtrip in July 2020- Bald Eagles on the Rogue River in Grants Pass, OR

In the age of Covid, I took a road trip to celebrate my upcoming 40th birthday. I stopped at Jedediah Smith Redwoods Forest, and then on to Grants Pass where I did a Hellgate Jetboat tour and saw some bald eagles, an few osprey, and a green heron. Then continued my tour over to Crater Lake and saw this Clark’s nutcracker against the beautiful blue backdrop of Crater Lake.

A hawk at SF Botanical Garden 06/19/20

In SF Botanical Garden, I came across a hawk in a tree being harassed by some crows. It was interesting to watch. The hawk was beautiful against the green fir tree, and it was a banded/tagged hawk.
