Running for cover

 I was so sad when these pictures didn't turn out.  This morning as I was walking out the door to the bus stop with the kids, there were a pair of bald eagles in our front yard.  One of them flew just feet from Soren and I and dove to the ground.  I think it got a mouse.  Soren ran in the garage screaming.  I ran screaming.  It was actually a little terrifying having such a large bird come at you.  After I got back from the bus stop I was able to sit out on the back steps and listen and watch them.







 For such a big beautiful bird, they have a really annoying chirpy, screechy call.
 What a magnificent way to start the day!
