We live near a wintering spot for bald eagles and on Saturdays they let people in to the park to see them. We spotted quite a few of the 40 that are currently there and learned a little about these amazing birds. They have wingspans of 5-7 feet and are 40 inches tall. They get the white "bald" head feathers around 5 years of age. The nests they build on the islands in the river are 10 feet across and can weigh 2000 lbs!
And Nora lost her first tooth this morning!
