    they tend to hang out here all winter - we have a lot of bodies of water around here that don't freeze over in the winter

    you're welcome

    and only if no one posts pictures of hawks...I suck at ID-ing them! :pout:

    Ha ha. I suck at that too.

    Someone said there's a Golden Eagle in the neighborhood. Been trying to find it.

    That would be fun, for me at least. I'm no expert like some of these guys, but I know most all my local stuff at least. Seems there was a old/odd car thread like this some time back.

    Hey, maybe it will help!

    They are hard to miss! I almost hit one with my truck, hard to see just how big they are until it's directly in front of you with their wings expanded. On my drive to my parents I see a ton of them.

    I am far from an expert too. Until a few days ago I could probably only identify a bald eagle :laugh:. That's why I wanted to start the thread.

    This thread is awesome!

    There's only the one Eagle around here. Finding him/her shouldn't be too hard.

    I'm flying into Corpus Christi on the 6th. I'm gonna grab a car and head a little ways south looking for birds.

    Any good spots that you know of?
