Wow..... I go out kayaking for a few hours and five plus pages of Trivial Pursuit and weather and sheep and frost and moons have passed me buy. I'm sure a few xmas cards, n wild tortoise or armadillo sightings too.

In addition to 1000's of migratory Canadian geese, Blue Herons, 100s of ducks, cormorants, a few flocks of migratory Trumpet Swans...we also saw about 6-7 American Bald Eagles. So cool. Not a bad snap considering we are bobbong in the Chesapeake Bay...

It's good to have another bord enthusiast in here. Bald eagles are on my wish list. They're not seen outside zoos this side of the Atlantic and even then there are very few. I really must go visit my former neighbours in your neck of the woods!

Today at the Christmas market, my daughter interrogated Santa on whether he’s received her letter and whether he is planning to get her that Lego train she’d asked for. Santa, being an honest man, turned to me for the answers. I’m thinking he might not be real after all. [emoji848] :eek:
And has anyone seen where my hedgehog went? I’m not done with decorating it yet!
Last I heard, he was heading swiftly for corner 6. where the drinking straws and old darts are.
Santa is real , of course, but like with everything else, there are imposters and tribute acts about.

Best time to capture photos of "super moons" is right at dusk, when there is some daylight, AND the moon appears super large on the horizon. Yep, missed that, but the full moon looking nice tonight. Heres the best i could do, even with tripod.

I have heard of it, but don't think it's celebrated by the tiny Christian community here.
I'm very interested to know why wifey is preparing food in your kitchen. ;)

It's more like HER kitchen, her rules that I seem to break. The porridge is simmering.... Deliveries tomorrow. I'll send u some.

Bald eagles are a big deal around here (for some reason) it's always on the local news when one nests near us.. boring, now ARMADILLOS, and TORTOISES (any armored little boys) on the other hand, that's great :D

I love bald eagles.
All eagles.
All birds.
All animals.
Except camels.
