For what it's worth, what I can see of it looks osprey-ish. Can't see its head very well, though. They're good-sized birds, but smaller than eagles.

 

Here's a better look at one. Note the stripes going back from its eyes:

 

Any and all raptors are just plain badass! 

Nature never fails to amaze me.....look at just how well the female Mallard blends in.

My morning. 

my morning 

4 hours or so to go. Chili cooking on the stove. I'm having a customer appreciation lunch at my store on Tuesday. Serving chili, cheese. And chips

I’m still trying to figure out how I can justify the 3.5 hour trip one way on this. 
 

Are there any tech guys on here that know how to make the gps on my truck make it look like I’m in Grand Rapids when I’m actually in Chicago? 
 

If anyone from my company is on here, I’m just joking. ?

These 40 degree evenings are perfect for a log on the backyard fire pit. A nice glass of wine and the dog to keep me company.

Spa day Sunday. Bath and nails clipped.

 

 

The look she gave my wife says “How long you going to make me wear this bandana?”

 

This is the look when she found out she has to wear it until Halloween is over ? 

 

 

Morrígan is quite pleased that, after my vacation last week, I am sitting where she expects me to be during the day – and that the scary stranger is no longer in the house.

Past several days have been almost summer like as well.  But we both know what's coming and Homie don't play that. I am usually scrambling just getting back from Mexico.  This year I'm pacing myself.   It's sort of a pleasant change.  In a big downer kind of way. 

So I'm good.

The Predator was stored outside about 10 minutes away from my house. Never failed that I would take it in for winterization mid November and would pick it up and bring back to storage and it was 10* and windy outside. Then I'd curse while screwing around pulling the batteries and putting the tarps on it. I kinda miss those days. 

Saw this license plate today. Anyone here?

Nothing beats a snow game...

What game was this?

 

I’m not quite ready for the snow. I’m guessing your elevation is a bit higher than the 700’ I’m at here in Michigan. ?

It was Montana. They're an FCS level program but fill that 25,000 stadium every weekend and party like they're in the SEC. Grizzlies happened to win 57-0, so they probably didn't even notice it was cold out. ?
