Yesterday Craig and I went on a drive. We have our neighbors car for another week so we thought we would take advantage of it. We drove down to Lake Camp which is ten miles away. We watched for moose, caribou and wolves as we drove. We were just about there when I spotted a large bald eagle in a tree next to the road. We stopped got out and took some pictures. It was a good find as he was a beautiful eagle.
Lake camp was pretty desolate. No animals, no boats, and no people. Just ice and snow and hare tracks. We took a little walk hoping to see something but we were all by ourselves. We decided that maybe we should go to dock and check out the river. Again, not much going on in the way of wildlife. There was a man out ice fishing on the river and he caught a very small fish while we were watching but not anything spectacular. On the way back to the car we saw a red fox lying in a box in the back of a pick up. It is trapping season here so we figure someone was checking their lines and the fox was the catch of the day. It was a beautiful creature. Now it will be someones hat or mittens to keep them warm in the below freezing temps.
Not much was seen but it was nice to get out of the house as it was the first time in weeks we have been above zero.
