So majestic and beautiful are our eagles and exquisitely captured by you Jim. Thank you!

Thank you, Jim, for posting these latest pictures. Spectacular as usual! I agree that the 1st 3 pics are of Mom, and the last one is Dad. (I believe Mom's eyes are closer to her beak than Dad's.) obxbarb will know for sure. :egg7:

Jim, they are gorgeous! Yes, that's the big girl in the first few. Here's a few from yesterday in the nest:

I just never know what to expect when I visit this beautiful
pair of eagles and their eaglets at NBG. When I arrived this afternoon
Mom was perched in a tree not far from the nest. Next thing I know the male
flies out of the nest and lands on the love branch and Mom was quick to follow.
When she landed I thought they may do some bonding. All of this happened
very quickly just past 3:30. Mom went back to the nest and Dad took off right after
I took these photos. It was amazing!
In case you did not notice I enjoy sharing these moments and thank everyone for
your kind words.

Thank you for providing me my "Jim Fix" for the day! Awesome shots as always. This couple seems to truly love each other ... and yes I'm anthropomorphising. (sp?)

That must really tickle her tummy when they decide to wake up.
Loved the "shooter" aiming right at us!! :smile:

beans · **Posted:** Sun Mar 27, 2011 5:18 pm

I was wondering whether or not anyone would notice the "shooter" :egg11:

SusanE · **Posted:** Sun Mar 27, 2011 5:21 pm

Oh yeah, if anyone is limited on time, at least watch the first 15 secs. of beans' video. :egg6:

beans · **Posted:** Sun Mar 27, 2011 5:40 pm

I know people can't possibly watch all of the videos posted here. That's why I include a picture. I probably should have included a picture of the "little shooter." :lol:

gigi · **Posted:** Sun Mar 27, 2011 6:00 pm

the shooter was my favorite part!!! No wonder he wanted to wake up.
