Photo website, Buddy, NBG, animal attacks, Owl nest cam, Black Bear mom and 4 cubs

I found another photography website to follow. Ron Dudley has just posted some Osprey pictures on his blog: Feathered Photography. I want to check out his site some more! I've just spent a half hour looking at a variety of his posts. He is very active, posting pictures often. And he includes explanations about the behavior he observes. Very interesting. Oops. Just spent another half hour on this site. Be sure to check this one out!

There is another post from the Wildlife Center of Virginia about Buddy's training. Raina posted another update on March 9th. Buddy is so smart! Check it out here.

Reese has posted updated locations for our eagles.
Azalea's update, including a picture taken by Cary!
Camellia's update.

The Norfolk Eagles and the situation at the Norfolk Botanical Garden are back in the news. Eagle On Alliance has hired a lawyer and has charged the City of Norfolk with violating the permit to remove Bald Eagle nests at NBG. Check out Rose's post on the Norfolk Eagles Forum. There are three links in her post.

Here are some stories of animals attacking people in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area. There is an account of an owl that kept attacking a jogger that I found interesting. They really are silent when they fly...

I found a nest cam of a Great Horned Owl. The eggs were laid on 1/20 and 1/23. They hatched on 2/22 and 2/24. There are two angles shown in one shot:


Here's a video of a Black Bear and her four cubs in New York as they get a check-up by some researchers.
