Mama - a photo on Flickriver

Mama

            Bald Eagle
Longboat Key, Florida

I went back to the nest today to find an man telling me I was too close to the eagles to be photographing them. He said he was from the Audubon Society and his job was to keep an eye on the eagles nests in the area. He was nice and I decided to not press the issue. The nest is located in a condo complex and there is a concrete walkway that goes almost directly under this nest. I really don't know how I could have endangered or stressed these birds by walking up with my tripod and taking photos and watching these birds for about ten minutes. Anyway I got a few photos.  This one is the female. I cropped in on this one quite a bit.
