One nice thing about central NY, wildlife is everywhere.

We decided to take a trip out to the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge near Seneca Falls, NY. After checking in at the visitor center we learned that the park had at least 3 Bald Eagle nests. One was visible from the center but quite a distance across the wetlands. Another was in a remote section of the park and had 3 eagles tending the nest (yup, 2 males and a female). This nest was just down the road and across a waterway. We were lucky to see the female with her 2 chicks. Just after this picture was taken, she flew away and came back with food for the whole family. What an incredible sight!
