    I spent a few days at our “cabin” in Mifflin County last week, getting it ready for winter and, of course, spending some time with the birds.  I'm still processing some of the photos I got, but here's one that is my favorite.  I was in the kitchen.  I often shoot (with my camera, I hasten to mention) through the kitchen window when at the cabin, which is about 60 feet from a patch of woods, quite thick with hemlocks, oaks and poplars.  I was standing in the kitchen with my camera when this blue jay shot out from under some hemlock branches, right up to the window sill, scolding the daylights out of me.  It wasn't happy.  But, I welcomed this unique break from my morning routine! > John Boor

    You could have stuck a fork in Pence a long time ago.  He was done before he even got started.  Pence should have never turned on President Trump.

    He started in Pennsylvania and ended up on Joe Biden's team.
    This was just one more REASON why he was in placed in this position ... HE is only here to wake up the Sleepy Heads & the Brain Dead!

    Little Pine Creek Watershed Adventures - A Dreamy Day! Waterville, PA

    Ah, my dear raptor friends, gather around my perch and let me entertain you with a grand tale of a day in the life of a sprightly 2 ½ year old bald eagle in the enchanting realm of Little Pine State Park. As we approach the final, crisp week of autumn leaves, I perch majestically on this sturdy branch and survey my kingdom around me. My keen eyes spotted a curious creature with a lens as big as his face pointed right at me. Ah, the paparazzi! I looked away quickly. “He simply can't resist my feathered charm,” I whispered to myself.

    After a glorious sunrise, casting a warm, golden hue over the stream below, I had visions of stretching my mighty wings, ready to conquer the skies of the Valley. My wings would stretch with a whoosh and a flap as I soar through the air, feeling the brisk autumn wind ruffle my feathers. I imagined down below, critters of the forest scampering about, and I played a game of tag with a cheeky squirrel, my talons just missing its bushy tail, in a quick attack.

    My dreamy continued as lunchtime arrive. I spotted a school of silvery fish glimmering beneath the water's surface of the park lake. I felt myself dive, talons outstretched with a big splash spreading the water in all directions. As I emerged with wings and body feathers wet, I realized I was victorious with a tasty catch. My dream continued as I savored my meal. I couldn’t help but chuckle at the confused looks on the faces of the nearby mergansers, utterly baffled by my fishing prowess. Awe, a beautiful day, a wonderful dream.

    My mind returned to my favorite branch, where I found myself in a conversation with the intruding camera lens. I gave it a knowing stare, because I am the true star of this autumnal spectacle. With a contented sigh, I settle in for the day, dreaming of more adventures and laughter in the days to come. Ah, the life of a young bald eagle at Little Pine State Park. It truly doesn't get any better than this in the Valley! >>>John Green
