Eagles back on Sanibel

I was so excited to see that the eagles are back on island and checking on the nest they built last season.   We hope they stay healthy and are able to produce one or more viable eggs this year.  I wasn't able to get a photo of both eagles in the nest today, but I've seen both sitting in the nest in recent days.  They seem to be guarding it to protect their territory.  I hope to get many photos of them to share!  This nest is at such a long distance away, that I used it as an excuse to get a longer lens!  Yeah, it's kind of a weak excuse, but hey, I take 'em where I can!
