WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED IN SIDNEY LAST JUNE THERE WAS A FASCINATING NATURE EXPERIENCE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THE EAGLE’S NEST WITH 3 EAGLELETS AND 1 RED HAWK CHICK IN THE SAME NEST. ALL WONDERED WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE HAWK CHICK.. I ALONG WITH OTHERS WOULD SWING BY AND CHECK ON WHAT WAS GOING ON. ALWAYS MAJOR BIRDERS, SCOPES AND WONDERFUL CONVERSATION …IT BECAME A GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD BONDING EVENT
.ALL THE EAGLES HAVE FLOWN AWAY AND THE HAWK SURVIVED. HE WAS THE FIRST TO FLY AWAY. TODAY WAS A BLOCK PARTY IN THE BLOCK THAT SO GRACIOUSLY HOSTED ALL THE BIRDERS. THE INCREDIBLE PHOTOS WERE REPRODUCED AND READY FOR SALE. OF COURSE I BOUGHT 2. THE MAYOR OF SIDNEY WAS THERE TO DECLARE TODAY HAWK/EAGLES NEST DAY.
IT WAS A WONDERFUL REUNION FOR THOSE WHO HAD CHEERED AND ROUTED FOR THE LITTLE HAWK. TODAY THE CONVERSATION WAS ABOUT HAWK SIGHTINGS… AN EAGLE FLEW OVER AS THE MAYOR READ THE PROCLAMATION. STOPPING THE READING AND CAUSING THE CROWD TO CHEER.
AND THIS WEEK ALONG WITH THE EAGLES I AM LEAVING BC.
