With permission of the owner you can venture out on the cabin deck and look down on the nest situated at the top of a partially dead fir tree. It is a very advantageous position for photographing. Here is Esther on the deck looking down at the nest in the top of the tree to the far left: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/Birds/DSC_6752.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/Birds/DSC_6752.jpg.html> And this is the scene below: Ma and Pa with the two eaglets: http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/C <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/C>anada+2020/Birds/DSC_3504.jpg.html <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Howard+Cummer/Canada+2020/Birds/DSC_3504.jpg.html> The parents take turns on the nest with the one away fishing for food.
