Winter robin
Today was a blustery day, with winds keeping the river whipped up and many of the birds on the ground. It got into the mid-50's - though the temperature is beginning to drop precipitously now. I enjoyed being driven to PT by a friend, then sitting and chatting, doing a bit of scheming. On the way home, an eagle flew over the highway and hovered, just in front of the car. Delightful!
I had a good conversation with an eye doctor today - nothing needs to be done about my increasingly poor vision for a couple of months. This conditions sometimes spontaneously remits! I was ecstatic! (Surgery on your one good eye is never the best possible option - until it's absolutely necessary...) So, to celebrate, I went out both the front and the back doors to see what would greet me. Rattlesnake Mountain is iconic in this area - always the first and the last to have snow. The ridge across from our house is a wonderful place to watch the sunset, especially in late winter. And the trees in the back had plenty of birds visiting. (You should see the cute photos of the house finch sitting on the fence!) I am blessed - and am fully aware of that, this evening. God is good.
