The farm where I dog sit once belonged to an excavator. The house is almost completely surrounded by water. Beautiful place! My friends (and neighbors) bought the place the same year I moved to my farm. Although we didn't know it at the time; we live about a mile from each other, in the middle of "About Nowhere"! Yesterday, I had the most unique experience at their farm. The wind was blowing hard and the lilly pads (just under the waters surface) were reflecting their shiny undersides with the current. This must have attracted a pair of Bald Head Eagles. The huge birds were almost stationary on the wind while they searched the lakes for fish. I could hear the splash as one of the birds dove down for it's meal!
Now armed with my camera, of course; the birds are no where to be seen!
