Two of my sons-in-law, my brother-in-law and two of our grandchildren ventured east to Sherburne yesterday to see first-hand our majestic National Bird. The Bald Eagle's distinctive brown body and white head and tail made it easy to identify even from a distance. One of them appeared to be feeding a youngster in the nest as the other perched on a limb nearby keeping a watchful eye.

How long do you suppose it took the parents to construct / engineer such a nest? This fortress will serve the needs of the chicks as they grow and eventually one day take off on their own.
We look forward coming back in the near future to see how the youngsters are growing and faring. Perhaps they will be visible in the nest.
