Today we took an old-fashioned Sunday drive with our friend Denise. After lunch at the Big Plate Diner here in Galion, we headed to Marion and Wyandot counties to check out a few wildlife areas. We saw lots of hawks and Canada geese, which are nice but so common that they are not exactly a treat to see. Nearer the wildlife areas we began to see more and more Eagle nests, but no Eagles.
Soon after we crossed under this lovely covered bridge in Wyandot county we saw another Eagle's nest.

As we were looking at it we were rewarded with a real treat. The Eagle came home.
My pictures are not good because it was far away and the car was running (causing motion blur), but they serve as a reminder of our wonderful, lazy meandering day.
I love Sunday Nature Days, no matter what time of year, but in the heart of winter they are especially appreciated. At the very least, the hikes give me much needed exercise, at the very best, like today, an Eagle flies by, reminding me that wonderful things happen when we throw caution to the wind and soar (even if we are in a car).
