Eagles

This afternoon when I drove to Idaho Falls, I saw 2 bald eagles

And 3 golden eagles.

I also saw a lot of hawks (different kinds). 

The farther south I drove, the worse the weather & roads became.  And it snowed (lightly) the whole time I was in IF.  So by the time I headed home (around 8 pm), the roads were NOT good.  I drove between 35-40 mph for the first 30 miles, and then about 50 mph until I reached Clark County (my county)--which is about 10 miles from home.  Then the roads were clear & it wasn't snowing! 

There was a car off the road, facing the wrong direction as I left town (just past the airport).  The police had just arrived & was putting hazard cones w/lights out.  So I had no desire to drive any faster than I did.

scary weather these days. Glad you made it home safely as well.


I have only seen a bald eagle at the wild animal park in San Diego.
