Home Sweet Home

I just moved to this great new farm house 2 months ago, and in the last two weeks I have been seeing these rather large birds soaring around my house and barns every day.

Being concerned for my two dogs, I decided to make some calls and investigate these birds. They both are a golden brown color with a golden yellow beak.

Someone came out to get a better look and help to identify what I was dealing with.

It turns out that two Golden Eagles have decided to make a nest in the upper open abandoned barn outside in my backyard.

It's quite amazing to watch them fly, dive, and soar having never seen them before.

You are so lucky to have these majestic birds so close to you. By the way, did you know, I think you may be able to claim some kind of tax exemption for the land the eagles are nesting on? I was just reading about it the other day. Leave another message on here if you like and I can email you with some more info!
And, even if you can't it is still absolutely amazing!!

That is so amazing, I wish I could see these guys!

They're one of my favourites - what area in Cambridge do you live?
