The snowpack in the Sierras should be tough this year with all the
weather California has had. Even the March PCT starters could find snow near
Los Angeles.
Last weekend I observed two Bald Eagles feeding off a roadkill.
They had taken it into a field by the side of the road where I watched for 10
minutes. The bigger male wasn't sharing the hind half of something I couldn't
identify. Whatever it was it was slightly bigger than a big rabbit. The female
flew in protesting so the male let her take one bite and then pushed her back
out of the way. She then proceeded to do a waddle and whistle protest.
Eventually the male took the carcass and flew off right over a car coming up the
highway. Those people had an amazing view...
