We had a male and female Bald Eagle at the Gualala River for several weeks. They have been spotted elsewhere. Jerry Anon photographed them at Anchor Bay Beach.
And Beth and Jeff Petit saw one at the mouth of the Garcia River.
We hope they built a nest somewhere here on the Mendonoma Coast. It has been quite exciting to see these majestic birds. I hope to have new sightings of these eagles soon!
Thanks to Jerry, Beth and Jeff for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
Paul Batchelder was by the north fork of the Gualala River, just above the green bridge, yesterday. He saw a happy sight - Steelhead headed up the river. You can see two fish on the upper left side of Paul's photos.The photos aren't the clearest, but the news sure is welcome.
To show you what the Green Bridge looks like, here are two photos taken by Kay Martin.
All the rain we have received in February has revived the Gualala and Garcia Rivers. It is a joy to see them running strong and supporting endangered Steelhead. Hooray for Mother Nature!
Thanks to Paul and Kay for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
