In 1972 John Denver wrote Rocky Mountain High, in collaboration with Mike Taylor. One of the lines goes:

“I know he’d be a poorer man if he never saw an eagle fly”

I know just how John felt.

I’d be a poorer woman if I never saw an eagle in my tree.

Truly, it’s amazing that I get to see an eagle from my back deck. A magnificent animal, a magnificent bird, a wonderful life. Thank you, goddess.

Blessed be :}

Mi manchi, mia amata immortale.
