Re: The eagles
well, i think the eagles only had to bring the hobbits as far as ithilien, if that far, maybe only back behind the lines at the gates. not looking at a map, but I'm not sure if it's much farther from the one to another.
the eagles are special to Manwe. it could be that the eye of Sauron marked the flight of eagles if ever they passed over Mordor. Much better, perhaps, to wear an elven cloak and slip along the rough terrain.
