My second morning out looking ... the first morning foiled by a river preventing me from getting to a nest I'd seen ... this time I had marked on GPS where my daughter had seen a nest when we drove by the previous day, and came back early and sat there waiting. Eventually success, as the eagle flew back. It ended up being too far away, and not something I could get to, so only distant shots. But, cool all the same, as this was my first time ever going out looking myself like this, rather than told where to go, and to actually find an eagle.
While driving to a nest I'd marked on GPS, I saw an eagle fly across the road in front of me and land in this tree. I pulled over and walked back to it and it stayed long enough for me to get this picture.
