Awesome set, Geoff! You did a fantastic job of picking your way through the obstructions to give us an eagle-eye view of the happenings on the nest. The close-ups are marvelous and I really appreciate the context of the nest site itself.
Great lighting (good job on that). But I also guess you get a preponderance of overcast days up there?
They sure are conditioned to you (the one staying into the lens).
Wonder how many years they have been adding to that nest. That's a beauty. Beginning to take on the likes of the "Great Nest" (I think in old Ohio?) in Arthur Cleveland Bent's Life History's of North American Birds. It finally collapsed.
On the 20 minutes walk: Looking back on my life's outings, it seems the quality of the results I get is often directly related to my efforts. Not always and just saying
Please keep us posted. I know I will be looking for this story more.
Geoff, it's fantastic that you can shot the FF at 200, 340 and 400 to get these great shots. Your 700mm shot with the Nikon is a stunner!! Please keep posting your eagle pictures.
