Bonus day of photography as far as taking pictures of eagles goes for me. Saw female eagle at nest, watched male fly by and go across the street. Followed him and was able to get real close to photograph. Bonus comes in when 4yo adolescent eagle shows up and eventually shares tree with adult male. VERY unusual for them to be so close and not fighting.
