    Yet another Huge Eagles Nest

    Went by one of several Eagle nest locations I am aware of...found this one bigger than last year. Lighting was tough but I wanted to share the size of this nest. Will need to go back in the evening when the sun will be behind me.

    Nice shots with that light, Eric. I have never walked down to that nest...... Need to add it to my list of things to do.

    Wow! That is a very old nest! It appears to be in the 400 lb range and be what.. 10x 10x 10?

    That seems like a mansion!

    I do not know anything about eagles or birds in general, but ...
    how can you tell about which one is female/male?

    eagles are sexually dimorphic(both sexes have same plumage). The female is the larger of the 2.
