Silverton CO Espresso Coffee Shop

We took the train up to Silverton Co yesterday for our son's birthday. He got to choose what he wanted to do that day. The train ride is long, but we really enjoyed the views of the Animas and the wilderness.

We stopped at the Steam and Steel Cafe up there and met Eric, one of the owners. Nice guy and Great coffee. So stop in and say hello to him at his Silverton CO espresso coffee shop. The cafe is at 1309 Greene Street.

Nemesis Bird Finally Found.

Had a vacation up at Rocky Mountain National Park and Climbed Long's Peak. After about 4-5 years of looking for this bird we finally saw the White tailed Ptarmigan on the hike down from the Boulder field section of the trail. Yeahhhh.

Funny thing was we saw another one a few days later on the way to Dream Lake Up above Bear Lake in Rocky Mountain NP.

It was a good little show too. We had already climbed the mountain and the ptarmigan had 4 babies following it around.

Bald eagle Pics Soaring over the house

Looked Out the Window just now and caught these two photos.

OK Spring is here...First Robin on the Property

Not incredibly exciting except that I love spring. After what feels like 100 feet of snow, I saw and herd the first American Robin on the property today.

Now they're in Ghana

Species Total 1628. They're just cruising along and are halfway there (sortof).

Bald Eagles Galore

They seem to be everywhere. I'm seeing them all the time on Route 160 as I drive into Durango.

On Tuesday I went for a walk and found a young deer that had been killed. It was surrounded by Ravens and Magpies, but also flying away as I approached was a Bald Eagle. Cool.

It's possible that we have a cougar around working the deer herd. I haven't found any tracks though to confirm that.
