Excited!!!!!!!


Here is some of the beautiful wildlife that I get to see out here on the lake! I have been out here 5 years and this is only the second time I have seen eagles. The first time was only1 sitting in a tree. I was soooo excited to take these pictures. I stood outside in the same spot for more than a hour with my hands so cold I could hardly take the pictures. The wind is always blowing off the lake-that makes it bad when you are trying to take pictures. It was totally worth it though because I haven't ever seen that many at one time before. There were 8 of them out there. I think one  pictures looks like a mature pair and maybe a juvenile sitting with them. There are little fish out there that were killed when we had the bad rain storm last week maybe that brought them here, the gulls have been squabbling out there for a while now, eating all the fish. I'm glad it's cold because the smell from all the fish washed up on the bank in piles is going to be bad once it warms up :(
