You will find the eggs at the base of the waterfall at 41, 37. Word of advise; don't jump into the water from up high. It's not very deep.
Disturb the eggs by clicking them, and Talonshrike, who is patting and not attack-able above, will come down. Kill him, and loot the eye.
A quick tip: the water at the base of the waterfall is not deep enough to swim in - I learned the hard way by jumping in from the top of the cliff to my death.... don't be lazy, walk down.

What to do
Description
Garwal hides himself behind an unnatural magic. None can see him unless he wants you to. There may be one chance we can take, though. My enemy, the great eagle, Talonshrike, is said to have eyes that can see anything. If you were to take her eyes, then you would surely be able to see Garwal. Talonshrike keeps her nest at the base of a waterfall just to the southwest of the vrykul place called Skorn. If you touch the eggs in her nest, she will come down from the sky to kill you. Get her eyes.
