Owls, Eagles & Kayaks

Although this morning would be another grand morning to search for hungry raptors, I need to be at home to sign for a package … a new tool for my birding quiver … a folding kayak. Oru Kayak makes a boat that folds up Origami style, and only weighs 25 pounds. The theory is I can easily throw this kayak in the back of my Subaru Outback, and area lakes and streams will now be even more available to me. It is my combined Christmas & Birthday present. I will post a review when our “white water” disappears this spring. In the meantime, I am acquiring the Beach LT model. Here is a video review from a gentleman who has 53k subscribers to his YouTube channel (video link for email subscribers)


However, now on to the star of our show, the Great Gray Owl. I promised more images from yesterday morning’s hunt up in Sax-Zim Bog.

Great Gray Take-Off (unsuccessful hunt)

Great Gray Owl Post Blizzard Winter Scenes (maximizing images is recommended)


And now back to our Bald Eagle Food Fight from the prior afternoon … Sharing is NOT allowed.

This is how it started!

This is how it ended!

  1. I once saw a man with the Oru kayak and spent some time talking with him. Not only could he take it in his Subaru, but he also took it on the city bus occasionally. It was fascinating.
