A Bald Eagle around our Areas - Critter 112

Saturday, February 14, 2026
We saw a bald eagle a little bit closer around her nest about a couple week ago. A beautiful creature.

Bald Eagles were very rare few decades ago, but nowadays we often see them flying around our areas. 

Interestingly, the birds keep the same "big" nests years by years, it is because the eagles match for life.

Hence, we might observe their babies in numerous numbers are born there over multiple years.

We believe there have been pairs in close by area for many years now, rebuilding each time a hurricane has been bad enough to destroy the nest.

Have you seen the eagles and their nests?

The Dragon Fruit Cactus Flowers - Gardening and Hobby 77

Wednesday, February 4, 2026
In case you didn't know, Dragon Fruits are actually Cacti that come from tropical rainforests. They have beautiful flowers.


Fig 01 - Flower of Dragon Fruit Cactus.

Tropical rainforests meaning:
- they need regular water
- we must protect them from freezing temperature.

The blooms are very large almost 12 inches (30.5 cm) across and about 9 inches (22.90 cm) long.

This cultivar is rated to be self-fertile, meaning the Dragon Fruit Cactus can produce fruit with its own pollen. 

The fruit that is red outside and white inside.

The plants are thorny, so we will need gloves if we would like to cut or prune them.
