Eagle Day... plus



Finally, we are healthy!!! Well...kinda better. Having 2 days of slow workouts, without coughing fits and sleeping through the night I think the flu has now had it's run. Today was a gorgeous day out and we decided to go see the bald eagles up in Farmington at the bird management site near the lake. I think Karen counted 49, toal at the site plus a couple in flight!! It is always an amazing thing to see one of these monsterous birds in flight. Didn't see any fishing, just watching!!


We took a drive down to the end of the dirt road and DID get a reward. We finally saw Owls in the wild! Even one that dove to catch a rodent, then ate it for lunch, yum!! They are the coolest looking birds. Great eyes!! Just amazing to watch them turn their heads, seems like they just keep going!! Anyway, a great afternoon. A great wintertime activity, if anyone is coming out this way!!
