Oct. 12th cont'd.

A few photos of the eagle in the perch tree, taken at our second visit. When I first looked at the eagle I thought the feathers on the top of its head were dirty; then I realized it was a shadow from a branch.

I visited the nest area with my birding partner on March 10th and was delighted to see both Ma & Pa busy in their nest :woohoo: It was a very dull day & it started raining a few minutes before we left the area.

I visited Ma & Pa's nest area with my birding partner on Apr. 9th. When we arrived I saw one of the eagles in the nest; it looked like Pa. He got up, turned around and looked like he was rolling eggs.
