12/12 Bald Eagle at Leverret Pond, Etc.

[Paul Peterson]

At 2:00 p.today I espied a 2nd yr. Bald Eagle in the pond (yes, in the pond) eating a duck? It later flew up onto a tree on one of those Olmsted-created islands. I also birded Wards and Jamaica Ponds

Green-winged Teal 1 Leverret Pond female
Hooded Merganser 50+ too active for a proper count
Ring-necked Duck 24
Common Merganser 2 with the Hooded Merganser on Jamaica Pond
Ruddy Duck 3

Red-tailed Hawk 2
Golden-crowned Kinglet 1 Jamaica Pond
