Highway 29, Burnet Texas



There are now somewhere between 125 and 150 bald eagle nests in Texas and they are thought to be increasing at about 15% per year. I drove up to Burnet Texas yesterday to look at a nest that some eagles have built right off the highway on ranch land over the Llano river.

I did not get any pictures of the eagles, but here is a shot of the nest.

I've seen closely the bald eagle in Alaska...they're everywhere in the trees.

That's encouraging isn't it. The increase.

In the top picture is that the head of a little eaglet peaking out over the top of the nest? Neat pictures.

I thought it was, Earl, when I shot it, Alas, it was a branch. The eagle was very deep in the nest. Now I know I need a telephoto lens!

I have a kinda telephoto lens for my 35 mm camera I bought for the bike ride. Now I use my sony digital camera, which has a tiny lens. If I ever win Lotto I'll get one of the new digital cameras that has a 35mm lens and can use all the 35mm attachments.
