Summer is winding down here in New Hampshire, with a spell of beautiful weather and fantastic river conditions. The swimming is better than I can ever remember, and the morning mists make my morning row a luscious and mysterious experience. I haven’t has as much time for hiking this summer as I’d hoped, because we are moving to Switzerland for the coming year. Pam and Andy moved there two weeks ago, and I depart tomorrow! I look forward to blogging about our experiences and travels in that beautiful country.
I’ve posted a small gallery of selected photos from the summer, plus a gallery highlighting the many bald eagles I’ve had the joy to see in the area (one highlight below). And, a gallery of raptors from a brief visit to the nearby Vermont Institute of Natural Science during their “falconry” demonstration.

18 months later: I’ve seen a bald eagle in our neighborhood several times this winter – the first time I’ve seen an eagle over-winter in our area. I didn’t realize they did that! And today, I saw this fresh video with a sighting of mating pair of bald eagles just a ways downriver in Windsor, VT; the video is not great but the commentary provides useful facts about bald eagles in Vermont: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g3ExOnk2JIQ
