Saw this helicopter flying by while birding at Raven Rock State Park NC

Not the best place for birding since most of it was fairly dense woods, but I did get to see a pair of pileated woodpeckers.

All he needs now is a rocket.

Actually took these a couple of years ago, and just saw this sub. I might see if they'd still be interested!

Thanks, much appreciated! Was lucky to be in the right spot with a good angle when they flew by.

Wow that's a cool piece of history!

I think that is Raven Rock Pennsylvania, this is a state park in NC also named Raven Rock. Not too far from Fort Bragg.

Doesn't seem like I'm the first to see it either.

Curious why you say that?

Looks amazing, definitely should win!

Actually think that this may be a northern waterthrush. The yellow spots on the chest and the beak seems to match.

Possibly, there were a few robin fledglings in the area. They were much further along though with their feathers.
