Eagles, Crows and Other Stuff

We celebrated birthdays yesterday. Both Mom and Dad were born on January 20 a few decades ago. We picked up pizza and partied at their house with plenty of food and played Tripoley. Lynn didn't make the birthday party, because he was in southern Missouri for a wedding. His wedding! He and Karen were married at 5 PM and called a little after 6PM to say happy birthday to Mom and Dad.



This morning I looked out the window and saw literally hundreds of crows walking all over the pasture just south of our barn. Along with all those crows was one bald eagle watching the crows from the top of the sycamore tree.


From the distance, he appeared to be rather like Zacheous, a wee little eagle, but only because he was so far away. I took pictures through the windows mostly because if I went out, they'd have all flown away, but also because I didn't really want to bundle up and go out just yet.
