Birdfeeding

Today is clear and cold.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a large flock of sparrows, a flock of mourning doves, two pairs of cardinals, and a squirrel.

The other day we were out driving around and I spotted a bald eagle!  :D  I think they are starting to move back into this area.

I saw a large (in my opinion) flock of robins... and another of some glossy black/deep gray birds.

And I might have seen a red-winged blackbird too...odd, I thought they loked marshier areas and we have pine trees.

Bald eagles have been nesting for decades up at Clinton nuclear power plant. There's a whole forested area around the lake that they love. My father-in-law used to have permission to go there and film them. Even though parking was obviously some ways a away every year the particular pair he tracked recognized his car and would ignore it. They would watch other vehicles that parked there.
