    This beautyful and very old nest has not been used for the last 3 years. I was pleased to see it is this year. It sit on a tiny island in the middle of the Magog lake. Beeing almost a kilometer away from the camera, even a heavy croping can't shows details of the big birds (here a fully grown juvenile) but the overall picture worth a posting.

    Very cool capture, Yves. Nice to see an older nest being put to good use again too. This is really an awesome shot.

    Nice job, Yves. It gives a sense of place, and scale. Well worth posting.
