I was invited back to see the eaglets this year and I've been waiting for a day when the weather would finally clear; we've had a lot of rain over the past month. It was the second time I've had my camera out in over 4 months and the first time I'm getting to try a new lens that I plan on using for wildlife. The focusing system on the Sony camera is totally different than what I became used to with my older Canon gear. It was a learning experience and I keep on telling myself that it's always fun to have a challenge. It seems that motion shots are much easier to get and the 'portraits' are more difficult than with the Canon.
The eaglets are getting big and they are occupying different positions in the nest this year; they rarely show more than their heads and they are usually on different sides of a tree. I was able to get a couple of shots. I hope to get back out in a few weeks and check on how much they've grown.
