One of the things we love about living on our wild homestead in the big woods is that we often see wildlife. Right out of our living room window, in many cases. Yesterday, the pair of Bald Eagles that nest in the woods across the creek brought their immature family of three with them over to our little beaver pond in front of the house. We enjoyed watching the family all morning, right out the window!

After they left, I walked down to see what had brought the eagles over. Last spring, we had seen a deer that had been struck by a car limping badly, and then it was gone. I found a deer carcass with a broken leg. I felt bad for the deer but was glad we got to see the eagles. What magnificent birds! — Jackie
