Eagle Nest, Icy Strait, Alaska – Image 2257

An adult eagle watches over her two eaglets in a nest along the shore of Icy Strait. Most eaglets hatch during May and early June. This nest was built in a tree on a very steep hillside. By scrambling up the hillside, I was able to get camera level with the nest. Camera: Nikon F3, Lens: Nikkor 300mm F/4, Film: 35mm Fuji 50.-Mark Kelley
