    This morning at 10 AM there were
    2 bald eagles flying over the SE area
    of Lafayette reservoir. One was an
    adult and the other was in sub-adult plumage 
    with lots of white in the fore underwing, and
    mostly dark-headed.
    After watching them circle in the thermals,
    a RT Hawk joined them and screamed and
    circled for a minute or two. After no response, just
    continued eagle circling,  the RT left.
    During this a small raptor Kestrel sized flew
    through below them.
    Later as we approached the dam parking area
    we saw 2 Osprey flying over the water.
    It was a 4 RAPTOR sp. walk.
    
    good birding,
