Thanks to all who responded. I saw a bird and I would like to say I saw the eagle. I was walking from Muth Center on top of the cliff along the bike path towards Jamboree. The bird showed up beyond the cliff for two seconds or so, then dipped back under the cliff. From above it was black with a white head. If I had been looking up at it I could have ruled out an Osprey. It was eagle sized, but size impression is unreliable. Should I record a Bald Eagle sighting from this info, or is an Osprey equally/more likely at this location
We did easily find the female Mountain Bird. It was as if it she were waiting for us by the Muth Center parking lot. It was the first bird we saw, so that was good.
