That's cool!!

The neatest thing I got on my trail cam was a flying squirrel. I think he was "flying" in one and landed in another.

I swear!! He brought that himself. We actually know where the nest is and this is the 3rd year of babies but I just never thought one would land smack-dab in front of a trailcam.

Very cool. Here in MD, there is a pair of Bald eagles that have been nesting in a large sycamore tree for the last few years. The tree is next to a reservoir. A high speed transit train runs right by the nest. Urban eagles I call them.

Nice!!!!!!!!!
Eagles are rare here in southern Ohio. A few nests along the river, but it's rare to actually sight an eagle. I've seen a few, and it's memorable to see them.

Urban Eagles. One County north of the county that borders D.C. in MD. I shot these back in March of this year before everything leafed out. The sycamore tree is in someone's backyard, private property. But there is a business next door and they let you come and take photos. Once the tree leafs out of course you cant see 'em. The nest is so large, I google mapped it, then switched to satellite view, you can see the nest...incredible birds.

Cool! Bet that was a shock :D Just dont forget not to tell anyone where that nest is. As soon as people know they start disturbing the eagles!! I am shocked how little respect most birders have for the animal. All they care about is checking another one off their list.
Two years ago we had to put chicken wire around the trunk of the tree they are in because we have a couple of beavers in the area.
