Location Clark Hill rest area, Ririe, ID
After dropping off Logan at college, I had a drive from Idaho to Utah with no one with me.
Time to do some birding.
I found this really nice rest stop that overlooked a river, had lots of trees, cliffs, etc. It featured a Bald Eagle nest and Peregrine Falcons (probably also nesting somewhere in the cliff face).
I was on the sidewalk just down from the parking lot when he flew up into the trees I was looking at, singing. I was so used to seeing plain old House Finches out west that it took a second for me to realize that this guy was different. Song definitely helped.
