These images are from my Floida trip in Oct, and we found this nesting pair and just had a great time photographing them.

Here they are mating...

    Dennis, nice set of images. The whites really came out nice. Of the three the last one is my favorite.

    Hi Jim, thanks and agree with you on the whites turing out well in these images, and that last one is the one that I like best in these, but that mating image is also good.

    Very nice set, love the third (pity you couldn't get a lower angle - I'm sure it would have paid for all your Christmas prezzies) clap.gif

    No justice. I went to Florida in Nov and got record low temperatures. You got mating eagles!

    Great images. Nice work.

    Thanks Al, problem is that this is the best angle of them. The good news was that the nest was closer this year as the nest fell down the year before and the built a newer of closer, but I'm happy with these images.

    Great images. Nice work.

    I was down there late Oct early Nov and the weather was very humid for the first few days, and after that it was just perfect. It started out slow with the high humidity and once that dropped the birds started to come in. The temp there dropped after a few days later when I got home.

    Yes they had been mating most of the morning, and stayed around for some time.

    Thanks again

    Thanks very much Deb for the comments and the compliments, and this was a first for me as well to see them mating. Had a great time with the Eagles this year.
