Pam Monahan's New Pictures of Bald Eagle HK, Location Update for Bald Eagle Camellia, Bee-killing Pesticide, O'Hare Airport's Project Herd, More S'Caps From The Okeanos Explorer

Pam Monahan has gotten some new pictures of Bald Eagle HK! He looks so good! He is in his 5th year (he's 4 years old). His whites are looking very white! This is Azalea's brother from the same nest, same year. So, if anyone ever spots her again, she should look very similar.

Reese has posted an update for Bald Eagle Camellia. He's keeping to the same general area, but not staying in one place...

There is a bee-killing pesticide that has been found in garden store plants. There is a huge reduction in honey bee populations due to a recent occurrence called Colony Collapse Disorder. Something is happening to bees similar to how DDT harmed birds. Bees are so important! Read this article and make sure you aren't contributing to the problem with the plants you buy.

O'Hare Airport has found a way to put nature to work. I wish Norfolk International Airport would find a way to coexist with the NBG Bald Eagles!

Here are some more pictures from the Okeanos Explorer. I took these s'caps on Tuesday:

This starfish reminds me of John Travolta...

Three things here: Yellow Coral, Sea Spider, and a Brittle Star.

Here's a closer look at the Sea Spider. The scientists were speculating that it was eating whatever that white substance is. (I'm not sure what it is. The scientists might have known/said what it was. But if so, I didn't catch it.) They said the Sea Spider was either eating it or kissing it... They were funny!

This Brittle Star is hanging in there! Is this called, "Hang Five"?
