PA Farm Country Eagles

Pennsylvania Farm Country Eagles
In Partnership with the Pennsylvania Game Commission & Comcast Business • POWERED BY HDONTAP

Join us in celebrating Pennsylvania’s growing bald eagle population.
Immerse yourself in this view from the top of a big sycamore tree nestled in Pennsylvania farmlands. Bald eagles are wild creatures and it is important for us to keep them wild. Please refrain from naming the birds to respect them as wild animals. Also respect the privacy of the birds and the landowners, to whom we are extremely grateful for their enthusiastic cooperation in allowing us to share this peek into the lives of bald eagles. Periodic updates will be posted at From the Nest and in the live stream chat. Enjoy! And remember, nature can be difficult to watch.

PA Farm Eagles History
Eagles have nested in this vicinity for at least 15 years. It is believed that when a nest collapsed about three miles away, the pair built a new nest at this location. The eagles nesting in this area have successfully reared three young most years. Two adults have been spotted adding nest material since the cameras were installed in late October 2019. We can expect that the female may lay eggs mid-February and that viable eggs could hatch mid- to late-March. Young may fledge in June and continue to stop by the nest throughout the rest of the summer.

Bald eagles in Pennsylvania:
The bald eagle's history in Pennsylvania is a precarious one. Only 36 years ago, there were a mere three nests left in the entire state. With the help of the Canadian government, the Pennsylvania Game Commission and several other states reintroduced bald eagle chicks from Saskatchewan to the Northeast United States. Today, Pennsylvania boasts more than 300 nests and the species is no longer state listed as threatened or endangered. This 22-minute documentary tells the story of that success.
