As I rounded the south lake's SW corner I noticed (clockwise) an adult
Bald Eagle circling low above the corner and peninsula area. The
eagle soon landed in the water along the shoreline of the peninsula's south
tip. The eagle lifted off, circled several times, and then dropped down
into the water. After floating for several for almost 30 seconds, the
eagle lifted off and flew off. There was nothing clutched in its
talons. This was the first time that I have seen an eagle drop into the
water. Usually they'll grab a fish or bird from near the surface, only
getting their talons wet. (Wolf. Oesterreich, 10/8/22)
