Nature Surrounds Us

We took some time out this past weekend to go Eagle watching again.  It was a beautiful day for the hunt and started by spotting this American Blue Bird on the deck railing.


As we drove around LBL (Land Between the Lakes), a herd of deer were spotted by the side of the road.  I was able to snap a few pictures of the bucks.



We were definitely in luck when it came to Eagles.  There were at least six or more nesting in the trees and gliding through the air from time to time. 



We spotted one other rarity that I wanted to share with you . . . this camper trailer is held up by the two piles of cinder blocks in the back and a couple in the front.  It beckons to have a sign that goes something like "If this trailer is a knocking - get out of the way cause it's going to come down"!!
 
Only in Kentucky!

Eagles

Sunday, January 15, was a perfect day for Eagle viewing.  Our neighbors gave us an Eagle tour of  LBL on Sunday afternoon.  We stopped at several locations close to the water and did not find any Eagles.  Our last stop was by a lake on LBL.  We were able to see a couple of Eagles enjoying the sunny, yet cold day.  Two of the Eagles even performed for us with air-acrobatics.

A few acrobatic moves.
