Buddies Forever

A few days after we lost one of our eagles, I noticed this handsome guy hanging around the neighborhood. I could not help but consider that this stoic raptor was the hunting buddy of his fallen comrade paying his last respects...saying goodbye to his best pal...


...but, in reality, there have been lots of hungry eagles perching around Sitka in search of food due to the more than 30" of snow dumped on us in the last 10 days. Today, rain is making quick work of the once humongous snow drifts.

Speaking of buddies, I'd like to take a second to wish a happy birthday to one of my own forever pals Dave Clayton, who yesterday turned one year older than me for the 31st time. There's nothing in the world like high school buddies.
