[obol] Josephine Co, Illinois Valley birds

[Romain Cooper]

I noticed, in the trees in my yard, a Mountain Chickadee among a 
loose flock of Black-Capped Chickadees, Oregon Juncos, Ruby & Golden 
-  Crowned Kinglets and Red -Breasted Nuthatches.  Looking up from 
the tree, Christie noticed 2 Golden Eagles (adult) circling above a 
ridge in the background (at the same location where we observed 2 G. 
eagles on Oct 24).  The eagles soared for several minutes and the 
last I saw, one was flying, at high speed and altitude, across the 
valley.  (Takilma area, Illinois Valley, Josephine Co.).
I'm wondering if it's the same 2 eagles as about 9 days ago?  Are 
they a mated pair?  Are they migrants from far away or a pair from 
more local mountains?  No telling.

Go Ducks!!!
