Filled in to cover a northern Union county Winter Raptor Route today. The highlight was finding 23 Bald Eagles near the back of a chicken barn!!! They were on a manure pile, on the ground in the corn stubble, perched in the back tree line along a small creek and a few in the air. So cool ! Mostly immature birds.
If anyone wants to give it a try ...
Union County along Church Rd.
Not far from tiny Cowan Pa
Manure pile: 40.949038,-77.031404
Where we pulled off: 40.952839,-77.028189
Scope was helpful for perched tree line birds.
Approx time 2:30pm (perhaps that's when the barn is cleaned out of dead birds?)
