Around 7 AM this morning, the crows were being rather loud outside the window. I looked out to see what they were up to and out on the newly formed (and thin) ice was a beautiful full grown Bald Eagle! It was enjoying a morning snack of frozen fish. This one had no bands on it's legs. I watched until it flew off. How wonderful to see such a creature!

I then went out and filled the feeders for the smaller birds and heard a loon out on the lake someplace. The sounds carry so well that it would be hard to tell where it was.

This weird weather has one good side, the magnificent creatures that usually leave us in the winter are still here!
