Eagle River Nature Center

On a trip to the ERNC, I found yet another of my mated pair of eagles.  The first caught my eye as he was winging away.  As I pulled over to debate following him, I found his mate sitting just above my head!

The moment I got out of the car, I found this Downy Woodpecker just in front of me.  I started to track him as he flittered from tree to tree, but a magpie distracted me.

See how green his tail is shining in this light?  I've never seen it look like that.  Usually it gets a blueish cast!
The chickadees and common redpolls were all over the bird feeders.  I loved this shot!
