Carol's note about eagles over Stearns reminded me that I never sent out my own eagle obs. - much to do (not shopping) on Black Friday!
La voila: Don't you love it when the weather reports are wrong in exactly the right direction? Instead of 0 and windy on Thanksgiving Day, we had 35 and barely a breeze: a gold and blue day. It was indeed beautiful out here in plains-Boulder County (on our pre-dinner walk, we spotted harrier & kestrels--and the harrier returned this morning to try for EC doves in the yard), but on Friday, it was even more lovely: returning from a post-fete energy-walk, I noticed a small kettle of raptors climbing above a local prairie dog village: 3 or 4 kestrels, 3 hawks too high to be identified by me, and 4 mature bald eagles, gliding near each other and exchanging wingdip greetings. Happy holidays, everyone; see you on Christmas Bird Count day. Happy hunting to those who are doing more than one.
