Thank you again, Reese.
How beautiful is this pair, and what beautiful bobbleheads they will have. The last picture of the new mate, looks like an expression I have seen many times on the face of DAD NORFOLK.
Again, MERRY CHRISTMAS, REESE.
Wonderful news and photos! Looking forward to 2012.
Reese, thank you so much for these pictures! I really love the expressions on the close up pictures. What a nice Christmas gift! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
Aw Reese, What a beautiful Xmas gift. They sure do pose for the camera don’t they? Rhoda Gerig and I put together a little Xmas video card for all those we know and love in the Wildlife World, scenes from the NBG nest, in honor of NX and now NV and hopefully NZ making it nearby and home for xmas. That’s me singing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQROXcJRCtY&feature=share

Merry Christmas Reese and fellow eagleholics. What fabulous pictures and so clear. I hope this new couple produce some bobble heads for us to admire especially with the new cams. Can’t think of a more beautiful Christmas gift than to see our eagles close up. Love the last pic – a picture is a 1,000 words for sure.

These photos make me plain ol’ happy! My husband and I are going with friends in January to the Norfolk Botanical Garden (we’re in Raleigh, NC), and I’ve been sending them links to your photos. My, oh my, what a year we have coming!
Just the best Christmas present imaginable. Thanks.
We all are so in your debt for keeping us up to date on this magical pair. Cannot wait for the Eagle Cam to be up and running! Hope to see you at the Garden!! And have a wonderful holiday!!!
I’d like to personally thank Reese for all his efforts on behalf of wildlife and especially eagles. You are my source for dependable, ego-free information on eagles. Your professional approach allows me a great deal of trust in your reporting, advice and recommendations. Than you so much for this.
can’t wait for the season to begin
