It’s late March and I’m on a mission. Actually Mrs. T and I are less
than a mile from our home base. Moving silently I probe the trees with my
binoculars looking for clues. Distant crows break the early morning quiet. Have
they returned, for the fifth consecutive year I wonder?
There high in the tree overlooking the trout ponds! I move
closer but not too close. I do not want to cause any disturbance! My friends,
the trout farm eagles have returned. All is well here in Bluff Country
We have lots of them, I should send you some! Hi to Mrs T and Lily:)
ReplyDeleteThese are always majestic. they don't scare very easily.
ReplyDeleteYou have very wonderful neighbors.
ReplyDeleteWe get an occasional one. When Hubby and I were in Iowa this spring we saw dozens....even way out in the country far from the Mississippi. They've certainly made a comeback.
How wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGosh, I wish I had neighbours like that. I would be in my element. You are lucky.
ReplyDeleteThose nest can weigh well over a ton. The babies ones near me are getting big, headed over to say hi this weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good description of crows calling in the distance. The memories I have when I lived on the farm as a kid was the call of the crows and the chatter of the chip monks. I liked making the cawing sound as if I were a bird. You have not greened up much there.
ReplyDeleteLucky, lucky you to be neighbors with such majesty. I have never seen one in the wild.
ReplyDeleteYou live in a wonderland ... I'm envious.
ReplyDeleteOh, that must be great.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that the eagles have returned. They must like your neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteSo amazing. Enjoy the eagles.

P.S.
Thank you for the well wishes for my farmer market plans.
:-)
Hooray! You are so lucky.
ReplyDeleteHow cool to have eagles nesting so close to home. The nest must be huge!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that exciting??!!
ReplyDeleteI thought my owls had gone, but I heard him call to her today. I CANNOT FIND THE NEST!!!!!
What cool neighbors! Our backyard crows scare the eagles away, sadly.
ReplyDeleteHi Troutbirder, Wow, this is just great! Hope you will share more photos as the season progresses. Very cool!
