The temperature this morning was 25°F. Wind was calm. There were people stationed all around Jordan lake this morning for the quarterly bald eagle count. Just after the count began this morning the sun began to unfurl its textures and mantle the skies in shimmering glory.
Will be posting eagle count totals at a later date.
Grayced and I awoke this morning to a covering of snow! I’m very fond of various herbal teas. This morning I had dandelion leaf and root tea. Later today, I will have green tea. Then early evening have my very favorite of all times tea: Earl Gray Bergamot. I think I’m all warmly teed up for the day … are you?
Grayced is already sound asleep, tucked against me. As I give him a good dreams ear rub, I realize once again how small a cat he is. Time to stop the meandering thoughts and breathe a meditation that each being can be warm this frigid night.
peace and grace, Doc Ellen
Grayced the Cat has settled down into my lap as I am checking the weather report for the night. The forecast looks very cold and very snowy all about. But here inside, the two of us together and quiet, it is warm. We both ask that each of you be safe, be warm and settle in for a peaceful night.
The incoming winter weather has caused a change in date for the Jordan Lake Eaglefest.

In the 58 seconds that you have watched this gray squirrel, his heart has beat approximately 249 times. He is quietly at rest, safe on a window sill at my home. When a squirrel gets into full flight his heart rate can easily double. Whew!
