Good catch Jeff. That will probably be a good spot to return to.

Very cool Jeff.. Oddly enough I found a nest in one of my trees last night, I'll be working on getting a few pics later today...

Here's a really quick shot I grabbed last night..

I was shooting the nest from quite a ways off with the 400mm.

Very cool! It's hard to imagine from this shot how tiny that baby really is. He's tucked right in that little nest, isn't he.
Great shot.
