Yeah, I see it now. Rare enough down your way, unheard of here. Nice.

thought i saw one at Lake Skinner last week (unsure) but only other place i see them is Lake Hemet and Bearpaw ranch, both 4000+ ft above sea level, we were pretty high up today also.

going to head up to Lake Hemet very soon, fancy a trip up there?, we can car pool if you like? Bald eagles should be nesting.
