The Cohoes Eagles

Fish coralled in the shallows are drawing eagles to

near Cohoes Falls. (John Carl D'annibale / Times Union)

So Willow and I live close enough to walk to Cohoes Falls. We (and Paul) walk down there when we're not feeling lazy and the sidewalks are clear. On New Years Day, our walk brought us there and what did we see but...eagles? Real eagles? Could it be?

Turns out YES. The Times Union had a story this morning regarding the eagles that feed at the hydroelectricity plant there...they were eagles!

Eagles Story

Brookfield is doing a really nice job with the falls area. They have fixed up a little parkfront sitting area, it's lovely to visit. I am going to remember my camera to get some amazing pictures...hopefully with eagles!

It's been awhile....

Never getting into the habit of keeping up with posting (and so many other things in my life), I haven't been here in awhile. Willow and I are both doing well. We're having a torrential rainstorm now, soon to turn to ice and then snow. It was hard to get up knowing we'd need to walk in it. My goal is to have a fence by spring. There's a big home show in Albany this weekend, I'll go there and hopefully get some idea of what I'm in for.

I've been actively making collages using Picasa, and really having fun with it. Here's one of my better ones. The artwork is that of Sandra Spencer, mybunnies3 of eBay. I have purchased quite a few of her paintings.
