Yesterday as I was headed to Grand Junction to do some shopping, I saw an immature bald eagle circling above the river looking for fish. I was on a windy, curvy section of the River Road (Highway 128) but no one was coming behind me so I stopped for a second to watch it. It was huge! ...and I was so excited I got goosebumps! I reached for my phone to share it with someone....anyone....but there's no service on that road and I had to get going.
I did not take this picture, it's from a google image search...sorry!
In Grand Junction, Jennie and I went to the botanical gardens and then walked with her kids to the riverbank and took a short break. Then we shopped for a while and I headed home.
My last really cool bird sighting was a peregrine falcon (2 times now!) out near the park boundary. It was flying a little low, looking for rodents.
I'm so happy the snow's almost all gone!!!!

What an amazing site! We live in such an amazing world... love the days you get to experience something out of the ordinary!
I saw some bald eagles once in the Grand Staircase--you are right: they're awesome. You're so lucky to live where you do.
BTW, I love your pincushions. I want one...
