It was THE MAN's birthday yesterday which meant that we took a hike through the woods to get up to the pipeline right of way which happens to be on a very high hill above the house. We took the easy way up and then flew the drone until a couple of baby eagles showed up.
I am happy to report that the trees are starting to turn color. How to you like those rolling hills? Right about the middle of this picture is my house.
Dug out the Red Head hiking boots which haven't been used in ages and was on bird watch. We hear that Eagles have been known to take down drones and we didn't want to chance it. While we were watching the video from the first two flights, two jouvenile Eagles flew over. They were huge and checking out the drone. Time to hike down! I felt like prey!
Happiest of Mondays to you! I can't wait to hear what everyone else who hangs out over at Memorandum Monday was up to.
Wow great photos from the drone.. the photos are amazing.. and seeing the eagles would have been great too..

Happy Birthday to you fella.... LOOOOOOOOVE the view to your house. Now, if only you'd circled it!!! And it's delightful to see the trees turning some colour...... & I'm GLAD I'm teaching you some 'Aussie-isms' to confuse those fellow Americans of yours, teehee!!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to the Man.. a little late! And what a cool pic of the two of you... and a beautiful pic of the landscape and you got to see a couple eagles... I love birds of prey...
ReplyDeleteHB to Nate and glad he got a drone...fascinating about eagles! Lucky you with fall colors.
