We have halks and falcons here all the time...occasionally sitting right on my fountain. The other animals tend to make themselves scarce when the big boys are around.

Here are pics of my first bald eagle siting, right in my back yard. Came home, looked out window and there they were. December 2009. It was a very nasty cold and windy day and the eagles seem to like that. Any time we have high wind, I can find eagles along the Lake Ontario shoreline. This was the closest I have ever been to a wild eagle to date...maybe 20 yards at most for about 15 minutes as they hunted the edge of the water for dying Chinook Salmon. 16 years later and I still get excited when I see these photos.....Im 53, never thought I would see such a thing here and looking out and seeing this site in NY state blew my mind at the time
