This afternoon I heard a Common Raven calling, went outside to look
around.  Circling overhead were two huge birds, slight dihedral, but all
dark underneath, not the head of a Turkey Vulture.  I know most reported
eagles are Bald in VT, but I'm thinking these were Goldens.  I just
returned from a trip out west, so have not been keeping track of birds seen
in the area.

Other birds in the yard today include Chipping, Song, White-throated and
White-crowned Sparrows, and a Catbird.

Happy October birding everyone,
Pat
