Exciting yard birds have been rare this winter.  We have lots of White-throated 
Sparrows (Virginia counted 45 a few mornings ago) and several Dark-eyed Juncos 
regularly and both species bring us daily delight.  But the White-crowned 
Sparrows, a single Fox Sparrow, and a male and female Purple Finch made only 
brief appearances and then moved on.
We did, however, have major excitement this morning as a mature Bald Eagle 
soared over our yard and became our 134th yard bird.  What a magnificent sight! 
 We've seen dozens of them but never fail to have a sense of awe at their 
beauty and majesty.
