Where is the eagles nest at adair park? We are going to be down this week end, and want to see it. We know where youngs landing, adair's park is. Can someone tell us "where to look?" Thanks.

You can see the eagles and babies in the nest if you stay back far enough to see the tree. If you are looking at a lake martin map, the nest is located approximately under the double r's in the word ferry where it says "Old Young's ferry" and has the marker "50 " above it. You have to stay about 100 feet back to be able to see the tree and the next. It is taller than the other thought and these eagles are still young and do not have their white heads yet. The parents sometimes hang out in the old nest area. This is back in the cove to the right and on the left. Hope this helps.

The new nest is about 1/2 mi southwest of the beach area. You can go to Google Map and search 32 49’4.3” N 85 51’47.2” W to get an approximate location for the new nest, and 32 49’6.1” N 85 51’41.0” W for the old nest site(fallen Pine).

Now that the trees have leaved out it is easier to see the nest from a little downstream (south) of the point the nest is on. They were puttin on show Tuesday, both juvenilles and both adults were around for us. Good Luck, I hope you see them. It is truely one of the most magnificent sites you will ever see in nature IMHO. The new nest is harder to spot than the old one because it is in a live tree, not a dead one. The tree it is in is the tallest one though so that helps to spot it.
And FYI, it is D.A.R.E. Power Park as in the drug awareness program in the schools. I would hate for you to not be able to find it because of nomenclature. Good Luck again.

LTL, are you getting any good pictures of them, and if so how about a post? I agree that they are beautiful to watch, and we were able to enjoy one of the adult pair from this nest as it was visiting Point Cloxson in January of 2006. It brought the show to us.

I use to have hundreds till I took my computer in to AC to get repaired and they 'formatted' my storage drive. At least that is their story and they are sticking to it. I took it somewhere else and was told there was nothing there to unformat. There had NEVER been any data on that drive and ironically it was different size than the one that was in it. I had thousands of pictures from all over the lake. Some very unique ones. My favorite was a series of a sea plane landing beside us in the Sandy Creek canyon right in front of Smith Mtn. THAT WAS AWSOME. It is pretty narrow there so you can imagine how close we were. He was coming in and we were coming out. It appeared he wished to land so we manuvered over to the northern side and gave him most of the water. He treated us with a spectacular veiw landing just off our port beam. I got a great series of pics on it, but alas they are gone forever.

I have heard but have not seen that there is a nesting pair right out across from Wind Creek. First chance I will get up there and look for that nest. I have pretty specific directions and am anxious to see for myself. If I find it I will post the location. People do not seem to bother them at all.

I too have learned the lesson about backing up pictures. Actually just finished up copying the pictures from last summer over to cd's.
There is a nesting pair in the Wind Creek area. I have several pictures of them from last year that I'll post. I can't seem to figure out how to post more than one link per message, so I'll have to post several. These pictures were taken from much further away than the others, needed a better zoom.

Oh my goodness... your pix are amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. We have a group of young teenage boys coming in this weekend to visit Lake Martin from out of state and hope to show them what you have captured in your photos.

Great pictures, thanks for sharing. We are fortunate to have such diverse scenery at the lake, and that is one reason that my wife and I enjoy it so much. And good point about the backups – I have all of my old digital pics on CD’s but have been keeping duplicate files on the desktop and laptop only for the past couple of years. I think some time with an optical drive is in my future, I would hate to lose what I have.

Thanks all! So, if you are on the beach at dare park, can you see it? It's about 1/2 mile south of the beach? Is it at the end of a point? I appreciate all the help and will look for it this week end.

No unfrotunately you can't see the nest from the beach, and yes it is near the endof a point. IF you sre leaving the beach go toward Youngs Island across the big water. Keep the big island on your right and look to the left as you pull out into the river channell. There will be two small islands with a hazard bouy betweeen them. Go around them and head south down the river. The second point is where the nest is. Go alittle past it and look back up river for the best view. Trees block it mostly form the north side. If it is like in years past jsut sit and watch the parade of boats going to it. On a pretty Saturday boats will be lined up circling through that little sloughhoping for glance at them. Since these are juveniles they are little harder to spot also while sitting int the tree near the nest. They don't have white heads yet.

Everyone is welcome to save them. I'll be back down next week and hope to do a little fishing and get more pictures of them.

Guys, This is not lake related, but you are talking about lake photos... If a drive has been formatted it doesn't necessarily mean that the files are gone from a magnetic drive. What has happened is the file table data has been deleted. So when you view the contents of the drive from an operating system (Windows XP for example) it no longer sees the files listed in those tables but they are there.
As for a drive being formatted to a smaller size, it's likely it was formatted as FAT32. This was the native format of drives prior to Windows 2000. FAT32 had a size limitation to what it could format to. Newer operating systems are still compatible with both but the newer ones require NTFS on the system drive.
It may be possible to recover files not visible to your operating system and a lot of that possiblity has to do with how much the drive has been used since the format. As new files are put on, the older ones are eventually purged. Remember there are files there not visible to your OS, but the are on the drive and can be seen by special software.
If you have a drive that is 100 GB and you have since added and deleted 300 GB of total files form it since, then it's not likely you'll recover those old files. But If you have a 100 GB drive and you've added only 30 GB of files since then, you have a better chance of finding at least some of them. Another thing to consider is you may not be able to recover the actual file names as there is some indexing naming convention the file has underneath the file system tables.
Below is a link so one of many softwares that can help you recover deleted files and formated file systems.

Last year, on the Friday before Memorial Day, I saw a bald eagle literally walking and feeding on baitfish on a shallow sand bar that ran off one of the small islands just south of Pleasure Point on the main river channel. It was the island with the 2 marker buoys. Strange, because I didn't know eagles would feed in that manner. It was early in the morning with no boat traffic, so I guess the eagle wasn't spooked. I just stopped my boat and watched him from less than fifty yards away for about 3 or 4 minutes. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen, and I hated that I didn't have my camera with me.

I knew most of that Bruce. The only reason I didn't do the things myself was because I was working 70-80 hours a week and what little spare time I got I didn't want to spend working on my computer. I had one hard drive for the OS and another for storage. There was no reason for them to touch the storage drive but when I got it back the system would not even recognize the extra drive. It was a brand new drive that had never even been formatted. Apparently they forgot that little step. It is my fault fot not having them backed up, but like I said, I was working 70-80 hrs a week. Several hundred of them had jsut recently been offloaded from the camera and the card deleted becuase it was full.

To heck with the scavengers. My wife and I was on the lake 4 or 5 years ago and got behind a large cabin crursier named The Office. ItI had a woman in it that no Bird can compare with.
