Eagle & Eaglets

 I finally made it back to Coeur d'Alene over Memorial Day weekend to revisit the Bald Eagle nest. I was not disappointed! There are two eaglets in the nest although this shot does not show them both. If I get a few comments requesting more pictures of them I will post a few. As big as they are I wonder if they were in the nest last time I was there. There is a good picture on wikipedia of young eaglets. They look a lot different when first hatched.
