Bald Eagle on nest
Observation details
I saw 8 Bald Eagles as I approached the lake observation deck! I counted 7 flying, then 4 on the ice - but there was a slight delay between the counts so may have been some I saw flying so I'm reporting the lower number. Mostly immature, but at least 2 adults. I know this seems like a lot, but, I could clearly see each them using both 10x and 20x binoculars (Nikon). Then I moved to the access path and walked it toward the lake. From there I continued to see numerous BAEA. I saw an adult carrying food (not sure what it was). Shortly after that I saw an adult on the nest. Photos attached.
