The young Eagle whose nest took a tumble early in the summer made it on the ground...and later moved up into the trees on the same island. I saw him/her as late as the end of August up there. It might've been timing, but I didn't see the parents around in either August or September.

The question now is whether the nesting pair will return to that spot. They tend to return to the same nests and trees, but who knows with the nest down (and the amount of peeper traffic on a given summer weekend day).

The photo is of the youngster in question, flying from one tree top to another in late August.
