Thanks to Dwight's posting last night we added this location to our
itinerary today.  WOW!  The eagles and Red-headed Woodpeckers were beautiful

ationArea .  The adult Eagle was only too happy to pose for the spotting
scope but the immature just offered a fly-by!  The Red-headed Woodpeckers
are very cooperative if you want to take some pictures.

Indigo Lake is also a fantastic location for many summer resident birds.

Enjoy!

The National Park has removed restrictions on walking north on the railroad
tracks from Station Road a couple of days ago, now that the eagle has
fledged.

We walked there this morning.  Besides two Bald Eagles (one adult, one
immature), prothonotary warblers, red-head woodpeckers (3 adult, one
immature), and about 140-150 great-blue hereon nests with young, and many
common species, we were  pleasantly surprised to have a northern parula
singing continually from the east side of the tracks just at the southern
end of the swamp  Parulas nested two years ago at Station Road.
