Seen at Bell's Point today (2 photos)

Tuesday, September 11, 2012   by: SooToday.com Staff

Loyal reader Corey Tucker has sent us these bird photos.

"While walking around at Bell's Point Campground with my camera, I ran into a Bald Eagle adult perched in a white pine," he reports.

Corey also got a rare shot of a juvenile Peregrine Falcon chasing around Northern Flickers.

The bird was learning to defend for himself, he noted.

Great shots! I've noticed a lot more raptors in the area this summer than I ever remember seeing before, including Kestrels, Ospreys, various hawks and Bald Eagles.

We also have seen these birds and also have a pair of Sand Hill Cranes that visit twice daily

I am the one who took the the pics and have to make a correction on one of the raptors, the little one which I said was a Peregrine is actually not, it is actually a MERLIN, sorry for the mistake.
