Local Bald Eagle Nest

Rode my bike up to Calaveras Reservoir to see this occupied Bald Eagle Nest on top of a Power Transmission tower.
Will have to come back after the eggs have hatched.

Here is a wider angle shot of its nest at Calaveras Reservoir.

Very nice close-up shot and great with the wide-angle providing a nice perspective.

She's got a great view. That nest is very roomy so there must be quite a few eggs. Super nature capture. V.

Awesome view for both you and the eagle!!

Very unusual place for a nest but a great view point for the bird.

I would say it's a perfect place for the nest. It's high, near water and trees and any visitors can be easily seen. Great job on these shots!

Terrific capture!

Tom Munson		09-Apr-2012 05:16
They have hauled a ton of nesting material for this nest. Great shot, Bryan!

the wider view does not open, yet seems a rich and delightful scene...

globalgadabout		09-Apr-2012 04:35
that is a sturdily underpinned aerie...fabulous, almost fanciful image...V
