Caloso,

It's always cool to see the raptors to their thing. I'm fortunate to see many Osprey hunting above the Potomac on my commutes and a few weeks ago I was lucky enough to have a mature Bald Eagle (with a fish in its talons) fly directly over my head on its way home. I regularly see: Cooper's Hawks, Red Tails, and Red Shouldered Hawks here in the shadow of the Nation's Capitol. Pretty amazing. Just one of the many benefits of bike commuting that most people miss out on. Other than that I've been off of the bike for a few days as I pulled a muscle in my neck during a workout making it too painful to ride. I hope to be back on the bike by next week at the latest.
