Some Clear Day Eagle Pictures.

This is the same bird the day after these bottom ones were taken. He loves this big old spruce on our neighbors place and hangs out there quite a bit. He can see both places that way and keeps an eye out for the flock of ravens that like to make pests of themselves. 

A bit fuzzy but you can see his eye really well. 

Looking behind him. There was a lot of birds there that day and he was 'keeping his eye on them.' 

In this picture you can see the hook on his beak and his talons really well. These pictures are all in the poplars around the lagoon. Some days we have as many as 4 or 5 eagles at once. Some golden and some bald. Lately though it's just been this one lone eagle. 

Fun with Pirates and Bridges :)

The boys built this bridge with fence pieces. The blue blanket under the bridge is the water and the brown fences in the water are 'the broken down ship.' The couch and chair are islands. Some of the people on the island are friends but not all of them. Some of them are Pirates!   L is standing surveying the work or he says 'I can be a mountain.' 

L's Towers :)

The kids take turns putting TP under the sink in the bathroom. They take it from our back bathroom which is mostly storage and bring it to the front bathroom and put it under the sink. Last time was L's turn. He loves to do this. A lot more would fit in the back but he came out and told me. "3 towers Mom. That's all I want to do!"

Eagles in the Snow!

A few pictures I took of our winter bald eagle. He or she is never here in the summer but for the last several winters we have had a pair of balds and one that is alone. Often at the same time. In the top picture he is eating something that is under his feet! It was snowing so the pictures aren't the best.
