Dungeness Recreation Area
There are miles of trails at the dungeness recreation area. Some are thru the forest and wetlands with lots of birds. Some are right on shore.
Got it!
This little duck could not out fly the eagle…who now has a tasty meal.
Hunting in the dungeness
This cooper’s hawk (or maybe sharp shinned-can see the tail ends) was diving over and over in the tall grasses off 3 crabs road. Hope he got a good lunch!

Dungeness Hunting Grounds
THis eagle would fly by low and then dip into the grass over and over. I thought it wa missing its prey…but when I zoomed in I realized that each time it had a small mouse or vol in its talons that it quickly ate before diving again.
