Tonight I watched two Blue Herons circle above as they looked for the best place to land in the creek behind the house. Foe the past several years I only have seen one at a time fishing. Real nice watching those long legged birds circle for maybe two minutes. Early yesterday morning I watched as a doe brought her three fawns into my yard to show them where to find the feed I put out during hard times and then down under the apple trees to show where something sweet will be come fall, as I've watched several generations before do the same. If I would walk about a hundred yards right now I would see maybe a dozen deer in with the horses and maybe the turkeys heading for roost along the pasture.
My workplace in New Jersey sits on the Delware River. We have a picnic area out back overlooking the river where we set up an nest 80" above the ground to keep the Osprey's of the power lines. Bald Eagle are seen closeup weekly, Fox that will walk right by you and pay no special attention to you, a pack of six Coyotes, occasional bear and some of the nicest bucks in the area.
I don't know why someone would complain that they only see dumb people driving on the East Cost when there is so much else to see if they only looked!
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves and wiser people so full of doubts. Bertrand Russell
