Where is SPRING???

I'm sure I'm not the only one getting fed way up with Old Man Winter.  It just keeps hanging on and refusing to let go.  The weatherman is sounding encouraging but I am waiting to see if the proof is in the pudding as the old saying goes.

Looking out the window this morning, the river appears to feel the same way I do.  It's covered with patchy islands of ice.  There are 2 bald eagles sitting in a tree resting before doing some fishing.  The eagle population is very healthy if the numbers we have seen this season are any indication.  At one of the lock & dams the DNR estimated 1200 eagles were gathered.  They are a magnificent site to see and we're lucky to have a perfect spot to watch them.

Now mother nature needs to get the show on the road and give us all a little taste of Spring!  We're waiting...
