OUR VISITING BALD EAGLE APPEARS TO BE INTERESTED IN THE ICE-OUT CONTEST. LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE RIGHT NOW, HE'S IS APPARENTLY WAITING FOR THE CLOCK TO STOP, TOO.
BILL DIMICK HAS BEEN WATCHING FROM HIS PLACE AND FRED TOOK THIS PICTURE. BILL CALLED A FEW MINUTES AGO TO SAY THERE ARE NOW TWO EAGLES - PERHAPS DOING THEIR MATING THING. EVELYN RICHER REPORTS THERE IS STILL ONE AT THEIR END OF THE POND - SO NOW WE HAVE REPORTED SIGHTINGS OF THREE OF THE BIG BIRDS. (Not a great shot, but we've let Ray Richer know and perhaps I'll have better pictures to show you later.)

Comment from Dave Parker: WOW. From loons to bald eagles. All we need is a polar bear now. Also, see comment from Anonymous below -
