Painted Bunting and Golden Eagle!

A female Painted Bunting was discovered at Higbee Beach Wildlife Management Area Monday morning. When last seen, it was a short distance down the dirt road leading to the Morning Flight Platform/Fisherman's Parking lot, feeding on foxtail along the road edge.

A Golden Eagle was seen over the Beanery and later over the Hawk Watch, presumably the same bird was involved in both sightings.
