NEST HISTORY:
On April 19, 2025, a sudden windstorm blew down the big (upper) bald eagle nest that had towered over the NCTC campus for 22 years. The adult eagle pair did survive the storm, but unfortunately, their three eaglets did not. The adult eagle pair returned and are now actively building a lower nest in the same Sycamore tree, about 15 ft. below where the original nest was located. This lower nest is 75 ft. above ground level. Each fall and winter, the eagles add new nest sticks and begin mating for the new season. They are most active in the morning hours and can often be seen bringing in sticks and dry grass for their new nest. We hope to see eggs laid in mid-February, eggs hatching in mid-March and young eagles flying from their nest (fledging) in mid-June!
