I agree, beautiful photo and thanks for sharing we have a few bald eagles here on pearl river nesting and it surely ls a treat to see them now and then.

Wow! I'd say that is an amazing sight ��
the most I have ever grown at one time was maby
80. And out of those only 30 would be good for nice martin gourds.
thanks for sharing picture.
