Calling His Mate

Shiloh, Tennessee

The male eagle lets his mate know he's going for take-out.
And a good thing: hatchling number 2 arrived EARLY, and is doing well.
Now the WORK starts...

You guys are so kind...thank you. Terry this is a hand held shot from about 60 feet from the tree where he was roosting. He was in the highest branch of a hickory tree, about 65 feet off the ground. My spot I like when he is in this tree (he likes to sit here, I think, because he can see the nest) is off to his right at the base of an oak tree. As you can tell, there's nothing between us at that point.

Amazing closeup, Michael! Where were you viewing this from - wonderful pov! BTW, this doesn't look like a Meadowlark :)
