It was fun watching my two bird families feed their young yesterday evening on NorthStar Lake. Both the Bald Eagle and Common Loon families live within 500 yards of my small Northwoods cabin. I was actually surprised to discover the Bald Eagles chicks had not yet fledged since my last trip up here 2+ weeks ago. In addition, most of the Common Loon families are down to only one chick (most had two). I wonder if the large muskies found in my lake had some baby loons to eat??

Once again wonderful images.
Love your pictures. We are in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island and are enjoying your pictures.
Annemarie and John: My family loves your island, but we’ve never had one ofmyour famous candy bars. We first visited in 1986 and spent quality family time at Strathcona and Pacific Rim Parks. Two years ago we visited again on our way up to Prince George. We parked the car in Prince Rupert and then took the train to Prince George … bicycle touring back to the coast with another few days bike touring on Haida Gwaii. The nature during our bike tour was fantastic. If your interested here is my trip diary. We rode 627 miles which I would repeat any one of those miles in an instant … http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/YellowheadTour
