Looks like this juvenile Bald Eagle was checking out the Mendonoma coast. We don't know where this Bald Eagle was born. Gail Jackson recently photographed the beautiful bird.

One of Gail's friends thought this could be a Golden Eagle, but just look at that beak. I queried Mark Moore to make sure of the ID. He concurred with the juvenile Bald Eagle ID. He sent this photo of a juvenile with an adult Bald Eagle for us to see.

It's always exciting to see a Bald Eagle. We are thankful they are becoming a more common sighting here on the coast.

Thanks to Gail and Mark for allowing me to share their photos with you here. To see more of Gail's nature photography, here is her website: http://gailyimages.com/

It's pretty foggy right along the coast, though we have sun at our place. Much cooler today.
