There is about 15 feet between Knik River Road and the Knik River. Much of this riverbank area is lined with cottonwoods and alder bushes. Friday, I noticed a bald eagle near the top of a cottonwood tree unconcerned with both the traffic and the rain; every so often its head would rotate back and forth between the river and the road. Fast forward two days. There I am running down Knik River Road and in the same spot is a bald eagle, oblivious to the traffic and the rain rotating its head back and forth. Seems like the fall drizzles has put a damper on its spirits as well.
