Photos

About 2 weeks ago my daughter told me about a pair of bald eagles nesting in a tall pine tree in North Fort Myers and only about 8 miles from where I live. She also told me about the live "eagle cam" that shows life in the nest 24/7. "Ozzie and Harriet" moved to that location in late 2006/early 2007 and have raised many offspring there over the years.

In this photo Harriet is about 4 feet away from the nest but still in a position to keep an eye on her 2 chicks. The nest is about 60 feet above the ground.

If you would like to view the eagle cam you can go here:

The website also contains a lot of interesting information about Ozzie and Harriet and their history.
