I was pleasantly surprised during a hike today to run across an Eagle's nest with two Eaglets in it. Unfortunately, the pictures of the baby birds didn't turn out as well as I would have liked, but I am very pleased with the adult bird shots. Enjoy!

Very cool. Must be nice to just happen to spot a nest AND adults AND babies :). I can't even find them when I'm looking. Nice job.

How lucky you are to find this. ;) Looks warm with the Eaglets panting in the two images. Great captures. :D

Very nice group of pictures. Can't wait to see the little ones peep over the edge of a nest I found a couple of weeks ago. :D
