We are about to leave for a nearby eagle's nest at a wildlife refuge. I hope my results are as good as yours. We have been watching a pair of eagles at the nest for quite some time and have yet to see any young eagles but always hopeful the next trip will be the one.

Was finally able to make it down to the eagles nest and we have 2 chicks. Nikon d500, Nikkor 200-500 f5.6 all shot at 500mm. They do look better in the download but still not extremely sharp but was still fun to be able to watch them.
I won't be able to get back to the nest before they fledge...oh well...there is always next year!
