Excellent! If I may ask: Where on LI?

The birders frown upon giving away nest location, so I’ll say a costal town on the way to Huntington.

Nice!

I was asking only because I spent ~5 years on LI. Mostly around Sound Beach and Coram. Never saw any leucocephalus!

This pair is working on their 4th clutch. Last year they successfully raised 3 eaglets, that’s how good the food source is! There are at least a few known pairs making babies, so in 10 years it won’t be so unusual to see them, I suppose.

Ohhh, don't be so generic. I prefer to be more specific.

Ohhh, don't be so technical. Personally, I prefer Bald Eagle.

Not a photo today but a short video of what transpired this AM while walking the dogs. These guys have a much better track record of predicting Spring than any rodent in PA!

So I'm looking for a small level I can attach to one of my tripods and come across this one with a brilliantly worded description of the product. Not sure about this..

Ha! Sucking steel and having a screw fixation suggests to me that your level may need psychologival if not psychiatric help.

DR bound....

Looks like a good time to get out of "Dodge". Enjoy your visit with your Mom and family!

That doesn't look like the DR.

Some of my birds.

Snow Geese at Loess Bluffs National Wildlife Refuge. Notice the bald eagles on the dome shaped muskrat lodges.

Another attempt at the orion nebula with the sky tracker mount. A bigger learning curve than I expected and I'm pushing the limits on this shot but fun.

This morning 8am, 15 degrees!
