User's notes
Not the best of images. Three eagles were seen riding a thermal at altitude. When the thermal topped out the birds took off on a long, fast, glide out, passing high overhead and towards the northeast. The images show the birds in the sequence with which they left the thermal. Possibly a pair of adults with one young (the third image)?
