Joan Bacci and the Jenner Bald Eagles. Joan has been documenting these birds and they have been very camera friendly of late. Great work by the Jenner Bald Eagle Group and all the folks enjoying these local ambassadors of the town of Jenner and the mouth of the mighty Russian River....

 

Miracle Eagle (Incredible Story on an Eagle rescue) Bald Eagle

Uploaded on Apr 7, 2011

Truck driver Ben Wright was more than startled when a bald eagle struck his windshield with great force as he traveled along the interstate outside of Bear Lake, Idaho at 65 miles per hour. "I didn't know what hit the windshield, all I knew was the glass exploded, and this thing was screaming just like a child, or something," Wright said of the experience.

top notch experience.
been there 20 times in last 25 years, never fails always cool stuff to see. seen 100s of Bald Eagles on each trip, excellent views of Rough-legged Hawks, Red-tailed Hawks, Northern Harriers, Prairie Falcons, Golden Eagles, Ferruginous Hawks, Merlin. Kestrel. Rare sightings of Red-shouldered Hawks, Peregrine, White-tailed kite, Coopers Hawk. The Lower K, along with Butte Valley just south off the HWY 97, is a great case study in aging Bald Eagles, with so many present it is easy to learn all the color phases and patterns because of the sheer numbers of sightings. also other wildlife and wide open spaces and total separation from city life. One of the best places on earth, for me.
