Mother Nature at Her Finest : )
Bald Eagle in Pine
Mother Nature paid us a visit yesterday morning. Here’s our resident Bald Eagle drying her wings in the Pine snag across the street from Quaint. We had a nasty downpour the night before and she was soaked. I watched her from a distance for many minutes before she was content enough to go back to nest building.
The immense stick nest in the tower down the street “mysteriously” disappeared during road construction last summer. Luckily the babies had flown the coup and the happy couple is back rebuilding. It’s great to see them bringing sticks and spanish moss to their aerie.
Did you know the largest Eagle nest on record was one built in Florida that weighed in at 3 Tons?
Susie,
It’s so great to see the Eagles soaring overhead. She had 3 babies this summer!
I’m jealous. I’ve never seen an eagle outside of a zoo. I’ll trade you 4″ inches of snow for one eagle. And please don’t tell me to “Go Fish”.
