Well, this one is on my way to work...so an extension of my backyard

There have been Bald Eagles frequenting an area along the road I take into work since the fall. I spotted what looked to be a large nest in January. I saw a white head in the nest today and stopped to get a better look and a couple of pictures. This is the best I could do getting a picture of the nest.

 

I did see a nest exchange through the binoculars. This is I believe the female returning to the nest and the male perched after leaving the nest.

I'd love to look at them, Ei, but they're appearing very tiny, like thumbnails.

That's all I see too, Ei.

Pretty cool, Ei! Wish the Coop who has been hanging around my backyard would relocate some place far, far away......

That's weird. I'll have to look at that when I get home tonight. Flickr may have changed something again

Let's see if this works...

Oh wow, Ei, that is awesome!  Love seeing the white head and one of the parents too!

It appears there are 2 hatchlings on the nest!

I saw Mom in feeding posture yesterday as I zoomed by to work. I stopped on my way home and spotted a photographer with a big gun...might have been a spotting scope...it was across 4 lanes & a median. Anyway, with a bit of charades he told me he saw her feeding to 2 spots in the nest so 2 for sure!

No pics from me-I could barely focus on her through the trees with my binoculars.

Stopped at the Bald Eagle nest after work. The people with the long lenses say there are 2 hatchlings. I definitely saw 1 of them being fed...hard to make out but it is visible in the 3rd & 4th pictures!

     

[I hope the pictures come through...too tired to upload them to flickr right now...]
