Eagle Nest

I had a chance to watch this eaglet in a nest recently. Apparently there were two chicks originally but only one survived. The eaglet is still not fledged but likely a couple of weeks away.

one of the parents always keeps a close eye on things, and will defend the nest from other birds + eagles that get too close

a fawn strolls by under the nest

Thanks for having a look - hope you enjoyed these!
