In the past couple of weeks I have been visiting the 6 Bald Eagle nesting sites I know in my area of eastern North Carolina. Please review a similar story about Eagles on this Journal last April. In that article, I reviewed the same 6 nests and provided an update on the Eagle population in the area. This spring there are similar and continuing very positive developments for these birds. All six nests are occupied with either eggs or baby chicks. It is early, so chick numbers are not yet known since it is not possible to see the chicks until their size makes them visible from the ground. Also notable are the increasing number of adolescent birds seen around the area. I have a few pictures below showing one Eagle pair at their nest as well as a pair of 2-3 year old birds at their favorite hangout. Other pics show birds at their feeding grounds at area catfish growing ponds.
