Possible Golden Eagle Sighting








Hi Everyone
I got a report from Carl Haycock about a possible Golden Eagle flying low over the village, so i grabbed my camera and binoculars and sighted it with Carl but by this time it was really high in the air. He said he got some good looks and it was a golden color on its head it had white underneath the wing tips and on the top. It was quite noticable. It was very large and dark and it glided off towards Northern Light.
I then decided to hike to Pond Cove and sighted an Adult Bald Eagle and an Immature Bald Eagle. At pond cove a baby seal was on the beach quite alive and it looked to be in good shape. Looked around for its mother but couldn't find her, sometimes they will leave their babies and return awhile later. WIll check on the seal a little later to see if he is gone.Along the beach i sighted 6 Snow Buntings, 2 American Pipits. I also sighted lots of Black Ducks in the lower end of Big POnd along with 2 Canada Geese.Then i went to peajack and found one Coltsfoot in bloom. Ahh spring is near!
Tonight i went to pond cove and the seal is still there. 5 Canada Geese in Big Pond.
