It’s hard to say they live on our land even though we own it because the wildlife around us commands the terrain.

There are two eagles who live above the river near our deck. They are magnificent! Watching their afternoon hunt has become one of our favorite pastimes during the pandemic.

They’re gorgeous but frightening.
