We're Getting Close To Eggs
Any day now we should see eggs at the MN DNR nest. These two have been busy. For the technically curious; 100-400 Canon with 1.4 teleconverter for an effective focal length of 560mm.
Flying in with some new building materials. http://i.imgur.com/3WgAjS6.jpg Teamwork! http://i.imgur.com/TAbGEv7.jpg Union break I imagine. http://i.imgur.com/Gpsu0RD.jpg Mom has had enough. She bailed. http://i.imgur.com/93Xjap4.jpg |

I checked the live feed on the nest camera. Did not see anything of them but will keep checking it! Thanks for the heads up! :seasix:
Awesome shots Thomas! :beadist: How do you tell which one is which? |

I've been watching this nest for three years so it's fairly easy for me to tell who's who. Besides. Mom is banded Dad isn't. Dead giveaway. :D |
Awesome, Thomas. Need better adjectives.
Do you sense they are just used to you being there? Very cool to be able to watch this develop. Thanks for sharing with us. :cheers: |

This nest is located about six blocks from Downtown St. Paul and maybe 400 feet from a heavily traveled road. I'd probably call them urban Eagles. I honestly don't get down there but once a week. Nest building means lots of trips back and forth with sticks. In an hour they'll come and go a half dozen times. A three second shutter burst yields 20+ shots so there's usually enough to choose from. |
