From 2010, in the spirit of the season. (I'm looking at old holiday season pics at work today) Carl watching a Christmas themed episode of The Simpsons

I like the map on the wall. Maps are cool.

I haven't taken a picture in a week! I'm going out with a buddy to a park today though, so hopefully I will get something.

This is an 11 year old kid, his first time on a big bike - he's already a 12 time mini bike champion! He will be racing the big bike next year.

Took my scooter out today. Hardly looks like Christmas weather here. The park uses cattle to keep the grass in check.

Nice one Dave. I saw a fawn today, but no bucks. I did however see my very first bald eagle in the wild, standing in a tree at the Colusa NWR (about 60 miles north of Sacramento). Another instance of needing more reach than I have, but I will see how the pics came out once I get them all downloaded. We used 3 different cameras and about 5 different lens combos, so it will be interesting. The bird just sat in the tree for the whole half hour we were there and didn't budge.

Eagles perch, eat, screw and sleep in random order throughout the day. When there's just one, your odds of catching it doing something interesting are really tough since the perching takes up about 90% of the day most days. If you can figure out where it fishes, then you might can be on the flight path as it move from its perch to its hunting ground of vice versa. The movement is most likely to occur at dawn and dusk. I luck out getting five bucks hanging together and jumping the fence close enough to sun up to get decent light. Dave

So yeah, I was too excited and forgot to adjust exposure for a white bird and blew out some of the head, but dang, I was so surprised to actually see a bald eagle in these parts I just started shooting.

Thanks! Going over a few more of the shots, as much as I hate to admit it, my buddy got the better shot, using my 5d3 and 100-400L. It was of course on his side of the car

Thanks Mark. After talking to one of the docents today, it seems this eagle is very accommodating and has been perching in the trees just off the auto tour routes of both the Colusa NWR, as well as the Sacramento NWR, which is about 20 miles north (and were I also was today) and doesn't seem the least bit bothered by cars driving by it (albeit slowly) all day long. It was really cool so see, I just wish it picked a less dense tree. It was tough shooting around all those twigs!
