Eagles Favorite Weather. Eagles Favorite Tree! |
Specifically.... the Eagles! Yes, I finally got my camera to stay alive long enough to take a few pictures. And by a "few", I mean about 400+! Why take so many pics of Eagles?
Lots of Photo Opportunities today. |
Lots of "Eagle Trees" today |
Cold run day again... |
Especially now that the lake is frozen over and the only open water is the river. The Eagles seem to have their favorite trees, because you will go a little ways and then see several birds in one tree. Maybe they simply enjoy each other's company.
Eagles fly as Cheryl approaches the river. Can you see them? |
Some of them remained in place. Possibly because they are used to people walking, biking, and running along the trail. I did not want to scare any of them, but I imagine a creepy guy pointing something at you might seem a little unnerving. Still, I tried not to linger and cause problems.
In some places, the eagles were flying around like a cluster of Seagulls. Those pics did not turn out as well because of the trees, but there were dozens in the skies above the water. Very cool scene.
As for us, Two laps and about 8 miles of distance was all we could manage in this deep freeze. On the second lap my feet started to get cold, and there is usually no recovery after that point. At least the wind held off while we were running. Apparently, the windchill is supposed to be really bad today. Lucky us!
The Eagles Above us! |
So now we are home to continue our work as bums. Cheryl was a bundle of energy yesterday. She baked, cleaned, washed, and did a bunch of other stuff that exhausted me just watching her! I fixed my bike and blogged.... that was enough to wipe me out.
Hiro demonstrates my activities for the rest of the day. |
Thanks for stopping in and hopefully the cold is not grabbing you too hard. Stay warm and drink hot Cocoa.... Mmmmm Hot Cocoa.
