Below is a “ google capture” of Sardis Lake dam, spillway and the two places where I recorded my film. Sardis Lake Dam, Panola County, Mississippi I have enlarged the first area to show how close I was when I shot the video of the eagles in the Oak tree. Here is the film to show the majesty and closeness of this pair. I was in the right pace at the perfect time. x x YouTube Video Afterward, I drove a short distance to Bench Point and parked. I walked down to the second point in hopes of getting more film. Here is an enlargement of that area. I began recording when I heard a unfamiliar bird call. Here is that video (now properly labelled thanks to Bucketeers) of those calls. As you can see from the aerial evidence, I was recording the calls from the eagles I had filmed earlier. It didn’t occur to me at the moment. x x YouTube Video Oddly, most people have not heard eagle calls because cinema has used Red Tail Hawk screeches instead of Bald Eagles. We have been duped for too long. As an added bonus, I will add a previous film I shot from Lower Lake Beach (see the first aerial photo). If I was a betting man, one of the eagles in the previous film is the one hunting in the next recording (filmed Sept 2022). I want to thank Clickadee for guiding me toward the eagle’s call. Without you guys helping me, I’d wear this guy’s expression all the time; Opossum seen at Grenada Lake 1-17-2023. or, even this guy’s face. Black Vulture also at Grenada Lake. That’s all I have folks. I hope you have had a good week so far and a better remainder ahead.
