A young squirrel was looking hungrily at our squirrel-proof birdfeeder.

“Please, I will only take one!”
At the refuge, a Turkey Vulture was flying in the clear blue sky.

After a while, it landed not too far away and I drove there to shoot many photos of it. It is not the best looking bird but it is probably the best scavenger, cleaning up the countryside of road kills and dead animals that it sees or smells from high above.

One afternoon, a Bald Eagle flew in and circled Colonial Lake several times looking for fish. It even dove toward the water once but still came up with no fish, but it provided good opportunities for photographing in the waning sun.

A few weeks ago, a Turkey Vulture was also soaring above Colonial Lake for several minutes, looking for carrion in the nearby woods, or perhaps for dead fish dropped by the eagles.

It came down low enough for me to take a shot looking at its back. I did not see it catch anything.

Then a Red-tailed Hawk (tentative identification) also made its appearance.
