Life in a low tech cabin can be so easy going. A little coffee, a muffin, some slow flowing music, then the word mosey becomes the theme and life just slows down.
For the last 12 years or so, an eagle couple has used the same nest in an old white pine right above the boat landing below the cabin. Eagles mate for life. This couple is actually a bit of an anomaly due the death of one of them about 6 years ago. The nest lay empty for 2 years and "experts" here say the widowed eagle found a match on raptors.com. For the last 5 years they have produced a pair of eaglets. This year, the jury is out. I've heard that there are 2 babies, but I've only seen one so far. But the nest is so deep, almost 4', that one can be in the nest while the other, perhaps the stronger one, perches on the edge of the nest. Time will tell.
