User's notes

Young eagle on new nest. The original nest (observed between 2016 and 2023) was on a tree uphill (see brighter 2m high stump uphill left in photo), which got snapped in half when other trees and debris slid downhill onto it in a post 2020 bushfires landslide. The new nest is in a fire-killed tree, so not so sure as to it's longevity.
