Danged eagles are going to force me to buy a longer lense. Their nest looks to be 10 or more feet across and sits in a dead white pine above the creek on the Rhea County side. More than that I'm not telling. I don't know if you can tell from this shot but both birds are in the nest. One of them is just to the right of the tree trunk.
Black vultures are amazing flyers and are putting on a show for their courtship ritual. There were three birds in this flight. Two of them seemed to be in aerial combat while the other stayed close by.
Phlox in several shades are everywhere right now.
I don't have a clue what these beauties are. The flower stem is about six inches high. 
I'll try to post more later.
Michelle H. says the mystery flowers are Wood Betony. Could be.
