I don't think anyone in LOTR dies of infection from sword, axe, or arrow wounds. Guess the elves can fix stuff like that.
Yeah - I am hooked on this eagle cam... Did you see the eggs a bit ago when they traded places? The eggs are due to hatch next week. - It is quite windy here today (I am 40 miles away from this nest)... You can see the eagle that is sitting the nest now really hunkering down to stay out of the wind.
