I had to run to the Post Office late yesterday to get my tax return in the mail. I thought I would take a detour (a bit out of the way, LOL) to check on the bald eagle's nest on Skinner Butte. Sure enough Momma was in the nest. I assume it was Momma, since I think they take turns on the nest. I had to wait a while till she turned her head since she was facing the wrong way (for me, anyway). The directional light of evening bathed the nest and eagle with golden light. I found the result very pleasing. I was tempted to crop about half of the image to make the eagle larger in the frame, but I wanted to show most of the nest. But I still didn't get it all in this shot. It is big! I did crop another shot to show a closer view of the eagle, and it is very sharp.
There should be babies in a matter of weeks. However, it will be difficult to see them until they get larger.
