[edit]
Description
English: Bald eagle nest atop a pylon on the right bank of the Skagit River at Corkindale, Washington; the pylon supports Seattle City Light power lines across the Skagit River. The river here flows almost due west. View is from a boat on the river. Location is estimated, but should be pretty accurate. Object location should be precisely

. See Floating the Skagit River from Marblemount to Rockport for sequence. This is actually an unusually exposed spot for an eagle nest; they usually prefer some cover.
