Eagle and Otter Show Takes on New Partner

Just when we thought that we had seen it all, the Bald Eagle brings the "kid" into the act! 

The new act; A juvenile eagle poses on a piling for camera.

With otter and parent in the background the young eagle keeps tries to learn the ropes.  "Those river otters are so hard to work with," she chirps

An Amazing Place!

Eagle and Otter Show

The story goes like this...

The otter catches a fish and brings it onto the floating dock.  The eagle sees the otter with the fish and wants it.

The eagle tries to scare off the otter and grab the fish...

The otter is not deterred..

Finally the eagle succeeds in chasing the otter off of the dock..

                 ..but the otter brings the fish along into the water! The end right? 

 

No! the otter sneaks back around the dock..

And poof, the otter pops back up on the dock and says,
"wat up?"

Whale Alert!

No it's not Nessy, nor is it Champ. A single Humpback whale was spotted on the morning of May 6 at 10:28AM right off of Point Richmond Beach.The photographer was fortunate enough to catch the tail fluke as the whale prepared to depart from the surface to deeper water.
