A nice problem to have. They're magnificent creatures.

I saw 2 today in Reno, including one that attacked and carried off a white-headed gull (California or Ring-billed) from a huge raft near the center of a large pond. Late last month at another local park, a Bald Eagle killed and completely devoured a Canada Goose twice in the same week. I have yet to record the species as a yard bird but it's just a matter of time before one flies over when I'm out in the yard to see it.
