It's 3 eaglets for saturday

[naturegirl]

Got there around 9 and stayed to see all 3 up and about, one parent stayed in the nest while the other fly off to get food for their huge family. All 3 eaglets look good and active and are about 4 weeks old.

Amazing photos.  Glad to see all three eaglets are doing OK. Thanks for the update.

[naturegirl]

Hopefully the nest will hold. I wonder where they find food to feed such a big family

Hello,

Great shots how do you get such a high vantage point for shots like that, I always have the nest in the way.

[naturegirl]

That is a great shot. I rest my camera on my car window and aim upwards and crop a lot .

[Rockitglider]

HThanks for the info, what camera and lens are you using now, because they look different than what you used to post before? Like better and brighter! Very nice.

[naturegirl]

well I still use the nikon d5500 but now use the sigma 600mm lens and I use the settings on camera better , I never really used many settings before . I take a lot of crappy photos though but the sigma is a good lens

Hello,

I used to have the d5500, it was a great camera! I found it harder to use after switching from the d3200. On your lens are you using the contemporary or the sport model? Thanks,

Kit

[naturegirl]

contemporary the sport lens was too expensive, for action i use a lighter nikon 200-500  lens

[Rockitglider]

Hi again naturegirl,

That's cool, I use the Nikon 200-500 too for everything with the d500, but I think the Sigma might be as good or better, jury is still out on that. I know the Tamron isn't as good as the Nikon IMO. The newer Sigma Sport looks good so far but you're right it is very heavy. I tried it at Delray Camera. Great for a tripod though?

Kit,  I got the sigma at delray camera. I would say the heavy lens are good with a tripod or when shooting from a car or boardwalk where you can rest it. Staci-lee
