The Bald Eagle Nest is in the oak tree nominally in the center of the photograph. The nest is up right in the crown of the tree. This is as close as I'm allowed as it is private land. We may be able to see what is going on but my apologies it isn't going to be exactly crisp.
Here's what we have with my longest lens. Look closely there is an adult eagle up there. I actually won't be able to tell what is really going on until I bring the photos up when I get home and then crop them down.
I take it that this is Mom. Look nest right. See the top of a possible Eaglet head nest left or maybe that's a branch on second thought.
Eaglet, left, stands up. Is Mom feeding another eaglet or is she tearing food, or eating herself?
Mom appears to be watching...another eaglet?
Hard to tell if Mom is looking at left Eaglet or looking center.
Sun breaks through the clouds and Mom stares right.
Mom stares left. She's appears to be keeping track of something flying. Possibly Dad. I jump back in the car and decide to go where it appears Mom is looking. Silver the African Grey Parrot is with me (Yes, inside his carrier) and he's beginning to get bored and mimic the smoke alarm. Good thing I'm used to it.
Well...the foliage has come out enough now that I can't see Jack from this angle. Crapola. Back into the car and back to my original spot.
Now Mom or is it Dad has taken a higher vantage point. No eaglets visible.
Parent still above the nest, right. And suddenly there are two shapes above the perimeter of the nest. The left shape could be a wing...a tail?
Definitely at least two eaglets.
Poof, eaglets disappear. Parent still staring South.
Happy Hawking!
