Heather, I'll pass on what dh said when I showed him your photos and read your post:
"Wow, nice shots! ..... Well if she wasn't such a sissy she could be swimming and kayaking up here."
I knew you would appreciate that.

Awesome shots there, Heather! Really cool birds. 
Hey, I'm about to move to FL myself! We're getting another round of heavy snow now and the power has been flickering for the past hour. Probably gonna have to fire up the generator again.

DH and I have this contest to spot the first robin of the spring. He always wins! Not this year. I saw the first robin this morning.

We had a rare visitor on the pond last evening. It was just so neat, watching it soar over the ice and drop down into the few open holes. I hope it hangs around, and has an appetite for squirrel.

Great [photos. I hope he remains also. We see many here. They are beautiful birds.

We are seeing them more around the area than we used to. I've never caught one fishing on the pond. I'm hoping that's a sign that the food supply in the pond is back up, after the drought several years ago when it almost dried up. It's part of a wetland system, fed by a creek... when the water is low it really affects the pond.
