There were several times yesterday when I thought the eaglet was about to go out on a branch, and it kept looking up at the branch above the nest where one of the parents was, but about when I thought it might helicopter up to the branch it would just turn and move to the other side of the nest. I too had LOTs of shots with the trees in the way. Luck plays such a Hugh role in it. It just happened that the breeze was blowing enough at the time that I could snap off a couple of shots when the tree branches moved past the nest in one direction and then a couple more when it swayed out of the way in the opposite direction. I know you know exactly what I am talking about from viewing your great shots Ken, because when the wind isn't blowing at all a good bit of the nest is concealed.
