Garibaldi Bald Eagles

When I drove over to see if the eagles were at the nest, one of them was sitting above the nest squawking .....then I saw the other on flying overhead....before long she flew down to the nest and the other one flew off.  She looked intently in the nest and then starting doing something in the nest.....I thought she must be feeding babies, but I downloaded my photos I saw that she had a piece of bark in her beak moving it to a new location......I couldn't see any baby heads peaking out.... I think it is too late in the season to be still building a nest... last time I was here, it looked like one of them was sitting on eggs.....so I think maybe the babies are tiny and Mom was moving things to make them more comfortable. Time will tell......I will be watching whenever I past this way near our beach house. I know this isn't a great photo, but it is the best I got.......that tree with the nest is really tall and it isn't very close to the road.....I know.....excuses, excuses, excuses....it is good enough. (my new motto for this stage of my life)

We drove to Tillamook thinking the Saturday market might be happening; it wasn't.....it starts in June.....but the Master Gardener's sale was happening at the Fairgrounds so I went there and bought a few misc. things and one plant. I had just finished paying when an announcement was made that everything was now half price......It was okay since I only bought a few things.....but I would have been upset if I was buying what I usually buy every year ......I am trying to simplify my yards, but this one plant is a hummingbird magnet so I had to buy it.   :-))

Sunny day here at the beach.....just a bit windy which makes it a little cooler. I will be here until tomorrow when I head home for dinner with some friends.
