Autumn & Birds On Pickering Creek

While running errands nearby, I had (made) an extra hour to check out Pickering Creek Audubon Society for the first time.  I had heard there was a Golden Eagle sighting the past several days.  Possibly the same one seen and returning from last fall/winter.  Maybe there’d be some autumn water reflections too.

The bad news is I didn’t see the Golden Eagle, but I knew it’d be a long shot for such a short amount of time there.  I’ll be going back for him if he stays in the area per reports.

The good news I was rewarded with other photo ops before the quick departure.

An enjoyable autumn hour that definitely eased the drudgeries of the errand running!
