Looks like you got pretty close in. You got some nice shots. Please post info on equipment used and EXIF data so we can all learn from what you are doing. It's amazing how early the Eagles start nesting in Florida.

Great series, Gary. If they've already mated and layed eggs, you'll have to wait about 35 days for eaglets. And then, you'll have to wait a couple more weeks to be able to see their heads above the rim of the nest, unless you can see from above. These are really nice close-ups. Thanks for sharing.
