This was a place my uncle took me to down in Florida. The nest is about 500 - 750 feet off the road. You can park in this empty busines parking lot and set up. Was always 5 - 15 people there taking pics. This particular shot I got about 15 mins after getting there on my first day of shooting. Was told this pair of eagles have been nesting here for 8+ years.
The Indian Tower sits at the highest point of the original 5,000 acres in Nazareth. The original structure was a pavilion called "the Summer House" built in 1867 by John Jordan, Jr. He later donated $200 to the Moravian Historical Society to replace the pavilion with the present-day tower, which was completed in 1916. The Indian Tower is commonly thought to have been used as a lookout for hostile Indians. In actuality, the Indians had been removed from Pennsylvania long before the tower was built, and it received it's name because of the Indian Graveyard it overlooks. This tower has been used for many purposes over the years: as a Civil Defense Lookout in WWII, as a repeater station for emergency services, and always to rest and reflect.
This is a picture i painted of the old Bethlehem Steel buildings before half of them were torn down to make way for the new Sands Casino in Bethlehem
