Re: Eagle watching

You know what's funny Tricia...the tree and sky looks almost the same in the
pictures I took.  Amazing.  Maybe the sky is a little bluer.  There is a big
river that runs through my husband's family farm, and lots of trees.  The
bald eagles started re-populating there about 20 years ago and the their
numbers keep increasing.  Takes my breath away when I see one.  Such a regal
bird.
