Bald Eagle.
A gentle wintry snowfall accompanied Jack and me on our morning hike. No other dogs or humans on the hill while we were there—but a couple interesting birds.
Northern Shrike.
First Northern Shrike I’ve seen in at least two years, in fact. (Three, I believe.) Thinking it might stick around.
