User's notes
Private property. No public access without permission. This eagle spent ~12 minutes in front of the camera and we have a LOT of photos (hard to pick a selection for CNM). You can see in the last photo that it walked away, outside of the range of the camera. We suspect that it was hunting rabbits or looking for similar prey. Hopefully not our Brown Quails!
