:eag: Many thanks Sassyk for your warm wishes as I continue my boots on the ground wildlife/nature photography and journalism goals and opportunities. Also... I am so excited to help document a new eagles nest here in my neck of the woods this Spring and Summer!

I'm grateful for the years that I helped document this Glacier Garden nest!
I have really enjoyed working with you on our Hancock Wildlife GG forum and...getting to know you as a friend. :huggie:
(I will be checking in on our GG forum and post any s'caps and comments...when time allows.)

I hope this new season will be a great success for Mama Liberty and Papa Freedom! 🦅

At about 11am this morning it looked like Mama, followed closely behind by Papa, landed in the nest :woohoo: They both stood there looking around then Papa flew off a short while later. Mama stood in the nest for a few more minutes then she flew off. What a wonderful sight to see :rh:

I recorded a video of the event and have uploaded it to YouTube here. Here are a few s'caps I snipped from the video.
