Here are a few of my pics of the eagles on Fledgefest day. The 1st pic is Pa in the south perch tree; 2nd pic is Solo way off in a distant tree taken through the fence (you can see the left side of the Garry oak nest tree on the right side of the pic with the 'V' branches at the top); 3rd pic is Ma in one of the beach trees (sorry for the power lines across the pic).

"Great pictures are not just because of the camera but comes from the eye of camera-man...it's like telling the cook the meal is good because the chef has a great set of pots...It is the hand behind the button, not what the button does! "
Quote from 4voyager's earlier post.

What an astute sentiment and I definitely concur. I am convinced Harry Milt was an eagle in a past life as he appears to know every nuance of the bird. It is as if he is flying the thermals with them. His photos will long be viewed not only by us on the HWF but by many others around the world. Harry's portraits not only captivate the nuances of the species but are extremely artistic as well.

And to you 4voyager...hope your Fledgefest was all that you dreamed it would be. Come back again soon. Until then...keep posting.

Here are some pics of Ma & Pa in the south perch tree; 1st pic is Ma preening above & Pa below calling to Solo; 2nd pic is Ma after preening & Pa looking towards the ground; 3rd pic is Ma looking for Solo & Pa looking at the Fledgefesters gathered at the south fence. Click 2X bigger.

Here are a few pics of Ma soaring overhead and back in the south perch tree. Click 2X bigger.

Here are a few more pics of Ma & Pa; 1st pic is Ma just landing in the south perch tree; 2nd pic is Pa preening in the south perch tree; 3rd pic is Pa in the south field tree. Click 2X bigger.

It's all the love and respect for our eagles that makes the photographs so wonderful!

Thanks so much for your compliment I hope to get out to the nest again Friday, and hopefully will get some pics and videos of Solo flying.
