Frank...has been a unique opportunity for me. I located these two nests up a remote deep wash with high sides. In the many hours I spent there I never saw anyone else in the area. It took me about 30 minutes in a side by side to access so the remote factor was certainly a blessing. A perfect location to view and photograph without disturbing their activity. I had someone who saw the photos on Facebook wanted to know how to find the nest so they could shoot it with their drone. Guess what, they, nor anyone else never got to view either nest. Unless I really know someone I'm pretty protective of something like this. I couldn't believe some idiot wanted to fly a drone to the nest sites. I too have a drone but it certainly never saw any airtime anywhere near the chicks. I shot these with a Nikon D500 and Nikon 200-500 lens. Wish I would of had a 600 but just can't justify the cost. I had to crop these quite a bit but they came out alright. Glad you enjoyed the photos.Casa Escarlata Robles Too said:Thanks Park for sharing your photos.
On our daily walks we monitor a couple nests
but usually don't get to see much action.
There are a couple hawks nests we watch but they stay very hidden.
We only catch slight peeks of them.
