Nothing too exciting about this photo unless you have never seen an Eagle's nest. I spotted this one from the highway and I was fortunate there was a farm road across the top of a levee, down to the tree. As you can see they don't have any neighbors. It is an exclusive neighborhood. I guess there were no suicidal squirrels or other birds desiring to live there. I suspect when the leaves come out in the spring, it will be difficult to spot this nest. I will see next year.

I've not seen one before and they appear to be much larger than the hawks nests I have seen - nice capture.

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. Albert Camus
I have only seen eagles nest, and at the time it was empty like this one. It's amazing how they construct something so large. tigz=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Our Turkey Vultures build their nests about this size. There are so many in the trees around me that I think I must live in their community rather than they live in mine.
On a lighter note, I have seen so few eagles' nests that I feel they must be quite rare. But, I am quite familiar with Boggies' Nests.

Last Saturday we drove around just downstream from the Oahe dam in South Dakota, on the Missouri River north of Pierre, and spotted a large cluster of cormorant nests, about half the size of eagle nests, but no cormorants anywhere. We did, however, see about ten bald eagles hanging out in the same trees, since fishing in the tailrace is quite good for them. I saw and photographed an eagle nest several years ago at Minnesota's Lake Itasca. Using interpolation I figured the dead pine in sat atop was about 85-90 feet high and the nest was 6-8 feet across.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
Great secret agent work showing the two perspectives, SOT...I've never seen one so close before...glad no one was home as they may've taken this as an invasion of privacy and what they're really up to in there...good shot.

A camera didn't make a great picture anymore than a typewriter wrote a great novel. (Peter Adams)
Love these two shots Tick - I'm a huge Eagles fan - football and otherwise - may I suggest these two sites - (1) Facebook - Raptor Resource Project and (2) Decorah Eagles on ustream - very informative and totally amazing if you love eagles like I do!!!!!!!!

I bet there are no squirrels within a mile of this. Even without the occupant the nest looks interesting. Quite a professional job by the Eagle parents. (Or was it the male alone?)

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Excellent spotting, TicK! I am excited to see what shows up to claim it next year.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Eagles build big nests high in the tree. The few I have seen have been from a distance and inaccessible for close up photos like these. Thanks for sharing these images.
