PLEASE NOTE -- High winds can cause our cameras to wobble; the eagles' tower nest is not moving. The microphone is sensitive so that it picks up the eagles' vocalizations and other natural sounds; if the wind noise is excessive, we suggest you turn the volume down or off.

ABOUT OUR EAGLES -- American bald eagles were first observed in our wetland in 2008. Since we began closely monitoring them in the 2012-2013 breeding season, 23 eaglets have hatched. Twenty have been confirmed as successfully fledging. With abundant food and water and protected habitat, the wetland is helping to sustain the remarkable recovery of this iconic species once in danger of extinction.

GRATITUDE TO OUR CAMERA SYSTEM DONOR -- Our eagles are typically in residence from September through June. Each breeding season adds an exciting new chapter to our eagle story. You can watch and listen to the nesting action live on our eagle cameras. Their design, fabrication and installation were made possible through the generosity of donor Kathy D.
and our partnership with Good Faith Energy, Mica Steel Works, Primoris and North Texas Renewable Energy Engineering.

ABOUT THE EAGLE TOWER NEST -- With electricity flowing nearby, the nest’s location jeopardized the safety of the eagles and the reliability of electric service. A remarkable partnership of Oncor, MICA Steelworks (formerly Falcon Steel), Chapman Group, The Rosewood Corporation, North Texas Municipal Water District, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and the Wetland Center set out to find a beneficial solution for the eagles and for electricity customers.

Over two days in July 2014, after the eagles had left for the summer, a 50-person team relocated the 200-pound nest. They removed the tower arm with the nest intact and attached it to a replica tower a quarter of a mile away. With no electrical lines attached to it, this new structure offered a safe nesting site.

But would the eagles use it? Ornithologists gave it a 50-50 shot. When the eagles returned in the fall of 2014, they tried to rebuild their nest on the original energized tower. Every few days, Oncor removed the nesting sticks. The eagles located the new tower in October and quickly moved in to reclaim their old nest. They have used the replica tower most years since.
