Solar ecplise from not totality...

Happy B-Day for all those who had one on the same day as the eclipse!  No cloud cover here, but only an 80% coverage...

Here we go...

The light was a bit odd as an incomplete spectrum of light streamed around the moon...

And there we have it!  

I used a solar film on the good old Nikon.  I found a large enough sheet to use on the 9.25 telescope, so maybe we'll get a few sun pics in the weeks ahead.  Not discernible in the eclipse pics, was the sun spot activity today.

Here are a few pics of the Eagles at the National Eagle Center...

Majestic, and sadly half blind.  This eagle will be cared for for the rest of her life at the center.

Another recovery.  A car strike and a new home
And... not exactly a roadside oddity but yet a really odd thing!

The world's largest boot... or so goes the claim!
