Malheur NWR has been one of my favorite Oregon birding destinations since I found my way there in December 2003. A few miles north of the refuge stands a lonely Juniper Tree that has hosted a Ferruginous Hawks nest for many years. I’ve seen nearly grown offspring there in the past. During this visit, the adult appeared to be sitting on eggs.
