United States (Florida)	Inter-coastal Waterway, Titusville, Florida. NASA's Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) used for the Space Shuttles in Cape Canaveral can be seen in the background. A few of the hundreds of Scaups that visit every morning are visible in the water.

I'm a bit confused...is that nest at eye level, or have you somehow been able to climb upwards?
Great shot.

Since she isn't logged in I will answer for Barbara - the nest is sitting on the pilings of a sequestered (and private) dock. The nest is slightly above eye level (you can't see into the nest).

Great contrast between nature and technology.
