An Eyrie
At first I thought it was a couple but I believe the one on the left is an almost-adult, hence the title :)
These were shot at the tail end of the breeding season, which is why most of the juveniles were already quite grown. I'll definitely be visiting earlier in the season next year to capture some of the eaglets.
Seems like this was their home perch, by how relaxed they seemed. They were perched here for hours. I didn't stay that long to confirm.
They sat there scanning the river with their bincolular vision. Close up of previous image.
Notice how one of them is sitting on a lower branch from the other. Was that intentional?
"You cover the up-river view and I'll cover the down river view"
We were watching them and they sort of noticed us, "Wait, are they watching us?"
