Area Birders, Michelle, Chazzy and I had a great time birding the areas around Laurel Bed Lake yesterday for the Blackford Christmas Bird Count. We saw 3 Bald Eagles, 2 Golden Eagles, and several species of waterfowl along the way. For those interested, here is a link to some pictures I took of our hike: http://www.pbase.com/aquilaet/laurel3 Have a Happy 2009, Ed and Michelle Talbott Grundy, Virginia
