On Friday, went to First Beach instead of Rialto, as the Park recording in the morning still listed the Mora road as closed and I forgot to call again when I turned off the highway and went out of cell signal range. Grubby weather. It mostly rained, very lightly; I was dry and overheated in six layers, rain pants, knee boots.
Eagles everywhere. Several along the lake, a couple at the beach. I stalked one for quite a while, he moved from log to log, never perching near enough for my little camera to do him justice. When I left he had flown down onto the sand among the gulls and was sitting there pretending to be something he was not. 'Oh pay me no mind, I am just a gull or a crow, hanging around watching the waves come in.'
