One of the most popular spots in central Oregon, is Smith Rock State Park, located about 10 miles north of Redmond. It's a favored spot for hikers and rock climbers, along with wildlife watchers.
I've gone to the park more times than I can remember. During the Spring, I have a special reason for going to there. I go to the park for what is on Monument Rock.
If you click on the image below (it may take a while to load on some connections) and look close, you'll see a Golden Eagle's nest on the wall. Draw a line to the right, from the spot where the sky meets the land on the left side. Near the center part of the rocks, you'll see the nest.

Wow, those are awesome! Very cool!
A lot of birdies this week :) Great captures!
WOW, what an awesome experience. Beautiful shots.

Your photos are way cool. We saw a nest we assumed was a golden eagle's this s pring, but it wasn't inhabited that we could tell. The location was a lot like in your photos, though -- inaccessible except by bird, skilled climber with ropes, or maybe helicopter!
Wow, that is so cool, you must have a great camera to get shots like that
what a fantastic view of their love nest. happy weekend.
