New toy

Big 'Herring run' locally on Sunday. Bald Eagles all over the damn place, patches of pink surfaced sea bigger than five acre fields each in the narrows, California Sea Lions rolled on their back with their flippers in the air from eating too much Herring. Acre sized rafts of Gulls sitting on the water too bloated with fish to fly. Working affairs precluded me getting the fishing rod out and joining in the bumper harvest, but I now have a new toy in the shape of a 60x spotter scope with a promise of a camera attachment for when I actually get a new camera.

Pictures of our local Eagles nest will follow when the set up is complete, although any pictures of Baby Bald Eagles will have to wait until August when they start to fledge.
