That's the first thing I thought too, that's a monster nest. You wouldn't want that falling on your car.

Wow! Makes the Norfolk nest look like a Hummingbird nest. :lol: That looks to be a well established pair of Eagles and I hope you get the images you're after. Do you guys ever see the sun up there? :lol:

Largest eagle nest I've seen, and yet you can still get a decent view of the eagle in it. Good shots.

That is a monster nest! Maybe it's the building code next to the golf course and you are required to have a mansion. Looks like a great opportunity. Nice series.

Curious-is the nest on the course proper, with players, golfballs going close by? If so, real tolerant pair of birds. Would hate to see an errant shot hit the nest and do untold damage!-Rog
