Mark, I've been pulling up the web-cam for Augustine every day lately. One of the things I almost forgot was how dark it is there in the winter. It looks like the sun doesn't rise until 9:00 this time of year. So far I haven't been able to see the peak with the web-cam I've been looking at. I think it's probably in a bad location - I suppose it's smoke from the volcano blocking the view. Today I was extremely lucky. The web-cam caught sight of a bird (above). What kind of bird do you think this is? An Osprey?

It has been cloudy. Did you see all the photos of the mountain? It has been quiet for several days. One morning maybe tuesday you could see a small eruption on the weather radar. At first it was blue and then turned to red. They have changed the radar a little to pick up ash better.
I think the bird you see is a young bald eagle. his head is not white yet. The wings look like an eagle.
