Twice during the past week, at about dawn, while birding the area about a mile SE of the nest, Mary Lou and I have seen an adult Bald Eagle flying directly from the nest location to the large (west) lake in the Sunset Lakes subdivision. In past years a pair has been seen roosting on the lighthouse in the island in this lake. This is very likely a foraging area for the Pembroke Pines eagles.

The photo is a bit soft, as it was taken only about 10 minutes after sunrise this morning at f/5.6. ISO 6400, shutter speed 1/2000 second.
