nature nut needs an eagle eye


Driving along, minding our own business....trying to keep an eagle eye out.

Lots of forest, having left the North Channel of Lake Superior.

Just at the side of the road.
Drive-by shooting, just on the edge of a Native Reserve.

How ironic is that?

I did stop the car, though. A drive-by shooting was less than the moment demanded.

The bird was somewhat irritated with me, voicing an opinion about the dumb two-legged ones.

I've seen ravens and crows harass people and didn't spend a long time irritating the creature!

Then, what should fly into the car, but a lovely wee critter.

It is the smaller things in life that are just as interesting!




The research tells me that this is an osprey, but the pun was a fun one!

I have been enjoying your vacation right along with you! You are right, it is much better to vacation outside the confines of school vacations. My time will come soon enough.

Congratulations on two great captures. You do, indeed, have an eagle eye.

A good example of the things you can find in nature if you take the time to look, especially with eagle eyes. -- Margy
