Glory, Glory...The National Bird!!!!!


The most wonderful thing happened this afternoon.  Hubby says come with me.  I did.  This is what I saw!!!!
It is terrible to pray for something so unimportant but I was praying to get a good picture of this beauty.

I was saying Lord, don't let him fly.

Please, let me get a picture that shows this magnificent bird.

God was listening.  I am not saying it could have been better.
I am so grateful that I had this chance.

Trying to capture a shot of his glorious wing span as he flew, saying, oh, shit, and praying at the same time...I shall have to apologize for that.

I have seen Bald Eagles on White River around Painter's Bluff and a young eagle once fishing in the river's edge.  But never, oh never, have I seen this glorious, beautiful, brought back from almost extinction bird of prey At The Farm.

Thank you, God, and uh, about that new camera...

Surprises

We love hidden things At The Farm. It is such a delight to round a corner to see a pleasant surprise. We may not know who put it there or when it was added but we all love the surprise.

Sometimes some thing alive will surprise us, but we always have our snake eyes on and stay safe.




The ticks are getter harder to see with our age, but they don't surprise us. They grow well here.
