Spent most of the day in the viewing area. Two adult Bald Eagles were in 
and out of the nest all day at infrequent intervals. The two immatures 
that have also been seen in the area were not seen today between 11-6.
The nest is a long way from the viewing area, perhaps as much as 1/2 mile 
and a scope is needed. Branches also obscure a clear view to the nest and 
as the trees green out the view will be further obstructed. Along with the 
Eagles, a pair of Red-tailed Hawks were often seen and mating behavior was 
observed. There were American Coots, Ring-necked ducks, Bufflehead and 
Mallards on the nearby lake. There are a few pictures at 
http://www.pbase.com/nsxbirder/bald_eagles_at_eastwood_park. 
If you use google maps for Eastwood Park you should find a map that will 
locate the parking, viewing area, and approximate nest site.
