Mid morning we noticed and eagle on the edge of the field across the street. Soon there were two more and after lunch a total of five. One juvenile and four white headed adults. Each in turn dropping into the field I assume to feed on something I will walk down to see what they are eating after they are gone. Given the wind and cold with falling temperatures I will let them eat their fill this afternoon.
Our first shot of real winter arrived last week, lows in the single numbers and highs in the twenties. Snowing today to be followed by more cold air at the end of the week. Argy and I went for our walk yesterday and I 
marveled at how comfortable I was while the temperatures were cold with a stiff breeze. My mind immediately went to the clothing that I had on and how far it has come in my lifetime.
Winter is here. Yesterday was the first snowy day since last winter. In fact it snowed a good part of the day and into the evening. We only got a few inches so not a big deal except for everyone having to re learn how to 
drive on it. Temperatures have turned a little cooler too with lows around 20 degrees and highs in the 30s.
This morning dawned pretty as a postcard without a cloud in the sky.
