Imagine my surprise when my phone rang last Summer and my 88 year old neighbor was whispering for me to look out my kitchen window! I looked out and this huge bird was staring right at me! He was about 15 feet from my window. I got all excited and ran out to my car and ran back into my kitchen and took a bunch of pictures. I have seen these birds alot but never this close to a house! He stayed there for a couple of hours then flew away.
We have Eagles here, Great Blue Herons, Canadian Geese, Mallards, Perrigrine Falcons, Hawks, Kingfisher, Coyotes, Raccoon, Red Fox, Possom, Beaver, lots of wild life! I love this Island. I wish it could stay the way it is, but I am afraid that progress will take over and we will lose the quaintness of it. It has changed so much in the past 20 years, I am afraid of what the next 20 years will bring. Oh well I'll enjoy it while I can.
Thought for the day:
If you look like your passport picture, you probably need the trip.
