Bald Eagles Nesting at Jordan Lake Park

A pair of Bald Eagles at a new nest at Jordan Lake Park

Found a new *possible* Bald Eagle nest this morning while birding at Jordan Lake. Not going to say where it’s at exactly, but I’m very happy to see these two!

This is the time of year that Bald Eagles start laying their eggs, but
I’m thinking that this pair haven’t started their clutch yet. Both birds rarely sat still and were busy arranging sticks and rummaging around in the nest.



I’ve reported my find to the ARMY Corps of Engineers nesting project for confirmation of possible new listing & I’ll be returning to the site over the next week to double check that this is indeed an active nest.
Very cool to see these large raptors thriving in central NC.
Looking forward to seeing what happens!
