Rock River Drift 7/6/26

I finally made it out on the river after the heat wave, storms and holiday crowds. It was super slow again, it gets worse about every time out. I did one drift without seeing much, then did another 4 mile drift and again nothing, but just as I was at the end I came across 2 juvenile Rad Tailed Hawks! I heard them calling out when I launched, but I thought it was eagle chicks. Then after getting a few photos of the hawks I noticed the adult eagle was at her nest and i got photos of her, she let me get pretty close.
