Just returned from Alaska - Well what luck I live so close to the nest and finally found it - special thanks to Eaglenut for the kind help- at 12.30pm I took these images (only 5 min drive from my home )

Please understand that these were taken at quite a distant in order to respect privacy.

You can see the position of the close-up camera too. Amazing. Shortly after both eagles took off, then one of them landed on a tree about 200m South of the nest. Can anyone identify who is who here? Click on them for better resolution.

Nice shots Christian,I'm glad that you were able to find the nest, with respect to the homeowners privacy.
I think that the eagle on the left, which seems smaller, is Pa and the one on the right is the female, that's my guess, and the second photo, maybe is Pa.

Thank you Mary, thank you all who send me so many encouraging and kind words! I really appreciate this

Well I spent some time on the beach, it was such a lovely day, and whilst waiting for the eagles to return to their nest, I followed this young one - and am delighted to share this with you as everything was just right, which often is not the case. What a beauty in feathers! I was a bit puzzled with the colors, looks like an eagle, is it? What do the experts say?
