Eagles

Our friends, the Corbetts, took this video of the eagles at Shiloh a few weeks ago when they visited us.

Our time with the Corbetts

Five of the Corbetts came to visit us over the weekend. We were so excited to get to see them again!
After the recital on Saturday we went to Shiloh to look at the eagles.This is one of the adult eagles bringing a fish to the nest.The eaglets are 9 or 10 weeks old and will be leaving the nest soon. They are almost at big as the adults. (You can see one of the eaglets sitting on the branch right above the nest, and the adult with a fish to the left of the tree.)Here is the other adult. He sat in a different tree and ate his fish himself. If you look closely you can see the fish hanging down.The boys watching a video that Daniel took of the eaglesThe National Cemetery was decorated for Memorial Day.A few of the girls Jonathan, Timothy and David at the Tennessee riverRebekah, Hannah, Rachel, Deborah, Anna, and AmandaDeborah and RachelHannah and AnnaThe boys blowing grass whistles Basketball action shots This is my favorite one. :)

Bald Eagles

A pair of bald eagles have a nest in a pine tree at Shiloh Park. On Saturday some of us went over to see them. We had never seen bald eagles in the wild before!
You can see one of the eagles in the tree... ...and here is the nest.In this picture you can see one of the eaglets to the left of the eagle, just under the branch. Another picture showing the eaglet David took this picture of a raccoon at Shiloh
