Two Bald Eagles

Hi Everyone. I taught lessons earlier today after acquiring two hours of sleep, so, yeah you guessed it, I'm feeling very exhausted.
My son and I went for a walk this afternoon after teaching my lessons, and much to our amazement we spotted two bald eagles flying in our neighborhood. We have never seen them in our area before. One of the blessings of living in the beautiful northwest is the wonderful wildlife, and I personally love the abundance of evergreen trees. The bald eagle is the United States national bird symbol, but the birds almost became extinct due to the pesticides which collect in fish. Fortunately the bald eagles are rebounding due to saving wildlife programs, and they have since been upgraded from the endangered to the threatened list. The life expectancy of wild eagles is 30 years, and the are believed to mate for life. I might actually get to sleep before 3 am, so nighty night. xxoo
