Ah, yes. The bane of the workplace, "Here, I know you can do this work, so do this work. No, it's not your job. Sure, there are 19 hours in your workday, you don't mind, do you?"

MLD, eagles.

Think about eagles...flying free right down the road, catching fish.

Moar eagle stories: (TL;DR all babies live to fight another day)


I sit here in the mornings at the computer when all the water fowl are busy outside. I've mentioned before that the eagles take the young ducks and geese right off the water. So the other day I have the window open and hear an eagle. Perfect, I'll go outside on the deck and see what happens. Maybe I'll keep one eye closed...There is mama duck RIGHT below my balcony with her 13 ducklings paddling along behind.

So, the eagle calls out, I jump up and go out, the mama duck squawks, the ducklings dive, the eagle appears at warp speed five feet above the mama duck, and on its tail is a red-winged blackbird, dive-bombing and yelling at the eagle.

Breakfast foiled. Ducks 1: Eagle 0



I love this time of year.
