I was at the nest today from about 12:30 pm till about 1:15.  When I first got there, the nest was empty.  I waited around, and then saw one of the eagles on the tall stick-trees to the right.  He had a fish in his talon and was picking at it.

I went back to the nest, and then there was an eagle on the nest, but only for a minute or 2.  That eagle then flew right above the nest and sat for a couple minutes.

I am not sure if it was the same eagle - the one on the stick-trees and the one on the nest - as I never saw the 2 together.  And, I can't identify the male from the female, so I don't know which it was.

I think it was 2 different eagles because when I left, the one with the fish on the stick-trees was still there.  Either it was flying in and out of the nest then back to that spot, or it was 2 different eagles.

Here are my photos from today.
