The bald eagle nest along the Merrimack in Essex County remains an active location for a pair of adult bald eagles. They are seen with greater frequency in and around the nest. According to state wildlife officials, this is a new next location for 2016 and not previously known in prior years. We will now look for clear signs that the female has laid eggs and has commenced the incubation process!

What a delight to observe a Bald Eagle in flight over the Merrimack River in Essex County in the late afternoon with cobalt blue skies and lingering late day sunlight!

A nest along the Merrimack River continues to be built up by pair of adult Bald Eagles. Looks like female getting her bearings inside the nest itself. White crown of adult just visible at top of nest outer ridge. Not yet certain that eggs have been laid!

What a beautiful morning with clear skies, radiant sun, and temps warming up above 32 degrees! Thought it might be nice to check on the new Bald Eagle nest along the Merrimack River in Essex County. What a terrific surprise to find two adult Bald Eagles perched proximate to the nest. they were both just basking in the sun and enjoying the morning together!

Two local birders checked in late last week in regard to a large nest. They wondered if this new nest might belong to a bald eagle family. Had a chance to check it out over the weekend. Little doubt in my mind that it was an eagle’s nest. Made a visit this morning and what a thrill to find an adult bald eagle perched right by the nest. The image was captured at quite a distance and serves as a documenting photo! A very cool find thanks to the tip from friends!!
