The Upgrade

Our neighborhood bald eagles began refurbishing their nest in mid-January. Over a period of several weeks, we watched them haul in long, sturdy branches, cattail reeds, and shreds of cambium. Even from a respectful distance, we can tell that the remodel features noticeably higher walls and an upstairs deck. 

The eagles have also been preying upon Canada geese, presumably for the meat but possibly also for a goose-down comforter for the chicks. 

"Does the eagle mount up at your command, and make its nest on high?" ~Job 39:27 (NKJV)
