It was a cold winter morning when this fox appeared at a favorite cove that had mostly iced over. Eagles were perched in the trees, while this fox got his breakfast fish.
Late comers to the Eagle Ice Party.  There were about 20 eagles fishing from the ice and trees on a cold, winter day, when many other birds "joined the party."  It was some sight to observe.

Being from Australia, how did I land here?  Our 22-year old cockatiel was not sure what to think of the blizzard when watching other birds at the bird feeder.  

Notice the right wing is much lower than the left wing.  About 7 years ago, the wing was injured.  A veterinarian said, “we must amputate the wing, it will never heal, she will never fly again."  Well, it took a couple of years, but Wendy learned to become a fabulous flyer again.  Wendy was a hand-fed baby and given a female name before the colors indicated Wendy was a male.  Wendy’s 23rd birthday is upcoming soon.
This little critter seemed so cold with the winds gusting 50 mph during the Winter Blizzard of 2010.  He ate for about 15 minutes before taking cover near the ground in dense evergreens.

Happy to report, almost 11 months later, the family has increased.  Often the family of 3-4 squirrels "raid" the feeder together, 2 young ones along with mom and dad.
The normally somewhat dull colors stand out on the sparrow during a snow fall.  This little fellow seems to be longing for a bit warmer place.
Bald Eagle about to catch a fish. There were about 15 eagles perched and fishing in a cove in Clifton, Va.  I had been photographing eagles perched in trees, when I turned around and spotted this eagle diving for a fish.  After the successful catch, the eagle flew to a tree and enjoyed the fish.  The next day, there were 12 eagles within 20 yards of each other perched in two trees providing more photo ops.
